Social issues
Social issues are a big problem that affect everyone in the world, including university students. Every year us as the world try to solve these problems and how we can fix them. But every time we fix one or try to another problem comes up or another problem just keeps getting worse. Three social issues i am going to write about are Homelessness, Drug trafficking, and School money.
Homelessness has always been a social problem but now I see that there is more homelessness then years ago. I think homelessness is a problem because people start losing their jobs, people gamble, addictions and some just decide not to do anything. When I little I use to go to L.A a lot well I still do with my grandma and we use to walk these streets to get where ever we had to go. I would see tons and tons of people that were homeless in the streets. It would scare me and make me sad because I didn’t know how people can be so homeless or without a job. but when I started getting older i realized because some were addicted or just got laid off from a job. But to me I think they can move on from that and find more jobs. Theres basically jobs anywhere even if its not in your major as a college students jobs are pretty much easy to find. of course no one wants a hard job everyone wants the easy way to get money but if someone really wanted to get a job they go and find one.
Another Social issue is drug trafficking . Drugs has also always been a major issue this is also a problem in colleges. Its really scary knowing this is happening in the world because we worry about the safety of our loved ones if they get involved in either of those types of issues. Some of the issues are the legalization of marijuana in states if it should be legal or not. That way they can reduce drug trafficking, violence and even HIV thats if your using needles and sharing them. Many colleges have had suffered consequence from drug overdosing in their student body. We need to protect all of ourselves from this because their are dangers to drugs.
The third social issue is school money. School tuition and fees are a big problem for college students because we don’t have enough money to pay for schools. Every year I believe they raise the price for school tuition and it just keeps getting expensive from books, to parking permits and to housing where ever you live. Most students do qualify for finical aid some don’t. Some have to work jobs and try to get all the help they can. Some have to get loans and hope in the future that they can pay it off so they don’t go broke from owing all the money back to the government.
