What ever it is, it's not getting any better.

Answer 2

I would say that the major problem our society is facing is the threat of a possible nuclear warfare, specially after the misseles N. Korea launched during the 4th of July. what i mean is that this is not necessarily about the nuclear weapons that each country is capable of developing but about the fight to stay on top of all other countries in every aspect; financially, technology, weapons, etc. by the United States underestimating small countries is proving to be harmfull, especially because the US carrys itself as very controlling and arrogant with others. They seem to look down on others because of what they dont have. the small countries like N. Korea are trying to prove themselves to the US and are shouting out loud that they are not intimidated,not at all.

Answer 3

One of the biggest problems today is undereducation. In order to solve this I believe we should all do our part to study everything we can from history to current events as much as possible. Do everything you can to teach people about what our country was founded on and for and start doing our part to returning our country to that state of mind. If you really want to stand out to your proffessor I would choose a subject other than terrorism, illegal immigration, or world hunger. Professors tend to look for those who think outside of the box a little. Step back and view the whole picture. Depending on the number of papers your proffesor has to read he/she is going to get extremely tired of reading the same thing over and over again. Give them something fresh to look at and your looking at a much better grade.

Answer 4

Caregiving is undervalued. Whenever an American is called to care for another human, we undervalue the energy given to that purpose. We do this by the amount of money we give to those in care-giving roles. Read the book Care and Equality to learn more.

To fix this I work through my zones of influence. Zone 1 = Me. This is where I have the most control and influence. I make sure that my choices reflect that I value the time, money, and resources I expend on caring for others. Zone 2 = Spouse. (I have significant control and influence here, but less than Zone 1) We work through the complications associated with our roles as care-givers. We support one another, and affirm to one another that the sacrifices we make are worth it. Zone = Children. I give them responsibilities for caring for each other and their pets. I explain that they may never be fully compensated for their work, but that their effort will have lifelong affects. Zone = Three. Neighborhood, Job, County and State: Support efforts of work-life balance committee in Oklahoma Bar Association. Advocate for liviable wage legislation. Advocate for flexible work benefits, promoted and supported Parent Day. Zone = Four. (Very little influence because I am not a congresswoman, or elected official or party of a national organization with lobbying ability) Despite my limited influence. I write on these type of issues when invited and I keep up to date on newsworthy activity in this area.

Answer 5

the main problem is the illegal aliens. you can't give 15 million of them amnesty as another 15 million would flood in. in order to work they must carry a card that after criminal checks have been done gives them a limited amount of time to work. without the card, its impossible to verify the fake documents and id's. they must learn english if they want to live and work here. if employers want to keep the aliens, then they can sponser them and pay a fee that would go into a fund for the further employement of others and system checks.

Answer 6

I live in Michigan which I believe has one of the highest unemployment. We have lost a huge GM plant and that has put even more people out of work. Those of us that do work most of the time work have two part-time jobs because full-time work with benefits are a thing of the past. I don't know how you solve it or even begin. But I do know these young mothers need more than welfare.

Answer 7

To organise cultural events between communities, open forum among people of all religion, to respect each other, more dialogues between communities, exhibition etc to educate people. Special program should be begin in the schools to educate children so they will be better individuals in future.

Answer 8

Answer 9

One problem is greed. The fact that people will turn on one another for money. I think we should pay everyone the same for the work they do and then people will do things with their lives that they love and not for money alone. Imagine a world where money did not mean as much.
