Letter: What is true of Reagan is not true of all Americans

JOHN CARLIN'S article should be compulsory reading for all who cling to the illusion of the American dream. Having lived in Atlanta, Georgia, and spent much time working with the homeless and destitute of that city, I can testify to the veracity and accuracy of his observations. I became used to being singled out as negative, a loser, a communist, even mad, for daring to question or criticise the American cult of individualism and greed.
