And another HUGE thing is that you don't have any quotes from the book. The assignment of the paper is to relate the play to the american dream. This should be evident in your thesis. It seems to me like you're just using the play as a base from which to bash democracy and capitalism, which is all fine and dandy if you're talking to someone. But for this specific paper, you need quotes from the book to back up the relationship between the play and the dream.
I'm sorry you don't have more time to fix it all.
