Well I can tell you that it is not the land of the free or the place where you can make any dream come true. That is for sure.
The land of dreams doesn't mean that everybody gets everything they want. As their constitution puts it, they have the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. The pursuit of happiness still requires hard work on the individual's part, or lots of luck in some cases. There are places where you aren't guaranteed any rights at all. What rights you have are what whoever is in power (or holding a gun to your head) at the moment decides you have.
