- Bullying
Bullying in schools and public places are getting out of control these days. It’s at the point where kids would rather die than go to school or anywhere else because they are being so emotionally abused that they think suicide is the only way out. We need to give consequences to kids who are hurting these people because no one should be treated like aren’t worthy.
Racism
I think racism is a huge problem today in this generation. This problem has been happening over generations. African Americans,Hispanics,and many different races have fought their way to have rights like everyone else. Today in this nation we have problems with the KKK, Police, and Neo Nazi’s. These groups should not be hurting people physically,mentally,or verbally. Even if it’s restricting their freedom of speech it’s not fair to everyone to be treated like this we need to put restrictions on these groups.
Equality
In this nation we have a problem with everyone not getting the rights they deserve. Women get paid less, more African Americans are in jails than any other race. Many same sex couples weren’t able to get married until a year ago. People are now just getting their rights after hundreds of years? It doesn’t make any sense that people should have to fight for something they deserve.
Debt
In this economy we have been having problems with money. The government not having enough money or government spending too much money. We need more jobs and better collage opportunities make more money for the economy. The more collage someone has and if we offer more jobs America will have more money. Also America needs to stop having wars it’s what’s causing most of our debt.
Terrorism
I believe that America needs to be more prepared when it comes to attacks. We can’t just let it happen then do something about it after. We need to prepare before and after an attack happened. We need bomb shelters in public areas,we need the military to be ready when it happened. There needs to be more hospitals near public places so people can avoid traffic and risk the lives of the people who are injured.
