Five Social Problems

Education
When a country has education, there's progress in the nation, but if a country lacks of education, there will be regression. Even though there's a lot of professionals in the USA, there's still many people who don't want to continue their education after High School, and they become comfortable with what they have accomplished, sometimes becoming a burden for society.

Discrimination
At this present time. The country faces discrimination to others in many aspects. Discrimination can be found towards women looking for jobs, people from certain backgrounds, and even religion. 
 

  
Healthcare
The healthcare situation has been a debate going for years. It's clear the people need these benefits, but it is also clear that it's expensive for the government to provide this service to everybody in the country.

Unemployment
The unstable economy that the USA is facing is affecting our society, this can be seen in the unemployment rates. Even thought this percentage has been decreasing in the recent months, there's still a lot of families affected by the lack of jobs

A lot of young people are affected by addiction to drugs. In our present time there's plenty types of drugs that affect people's health. This battle against drugs seems to be a continuous battle that will keep affecting our population.
