Think positive!  The world isn't so bad.  The quality of life for the majority of the world is better than it has been at any point in history.  Sure there are problems but nothing is perfect and will never be, but let's just make the best of it and enjoy.

How about the lack of personal responsibility for one's own actions these days?

My first choise of changing anything in this world would be so there would be no more sickness, ilnesses like aids, cancer, leukemia which are killing so many people daily, including lots of kids. \nMy second choise would be to change the hate betwen nations and people of different races, belives and religions. I think this is probably the most major problem of our sociaty today at global level. It was in the past too but its more today. \n\nI will have to think and choose just 1 of this lol

I would say that one of the big issues is sexuality.  Everywhere you look there are protests and news about gay marriage and in my opinion I think it will be hard for young people in this age group to understand what is going on and what is right and what is wrong.

sometimes society is not so realistic. pick up a newspaper for proof. Most important is what you as an individual feel inside. And how you would like to contribute to society. but it all begins with you. For instance, what do you see for the future and how can you help make it better? Sounds like a big job. don't worry. take a small bite and make it better!

no, i'm not satisfied with today's lifestyle.\nthough we might have increase in technology, science, etc.\nwe have a decrease in the qualities of life. more individu suffering, more broken family, more poverty.\ni do admire the neolitics era where people live in small community, independent, they fulfill their need themselves, they have lands (since industrial revolution, many people lost their land to small powerful people), they know each other neightbour very well.\n\nbut it isn't impossible to have those life qualities for present, everthing changes and evolves. the main problem for present is global inequality. greed capitalism. consumerism. environment crises. greed. ignorance. we just have to re-establish on our perception on meaning of life, the world.

The problem is the disproportionate number of children being born to poor, ill-educated people.\n\nThe number of children being born to poverty homes where they have limited opportunities of receiving health care, quality education, and a good upbringing are staggering. While the number of children being born to middle class or higher families where they have excellent opportunities are very low.\n\nSo now we have a disproportionate number of poor, uneducated people in society. That is a drain on our health care system, our welfare system, our taxes, and it increases our violent crimes.\n\nThis is the issue.

life is like that. those who exist on earth have to face unlimited problems. the best way to handle them is not to think y r u having them, but to decide how r u gonna solve them.

Poverty is the main problem. What follows is lack of education, utilities, medical care, food and all the other things we take for granted. It also opens the company up to dictators who, with a little money and power, can control the weakened population and keep them surpressed.\n\nThe Asian countries are great examples but Africa, Russia , Mexicon and Cuba also are models of what can happen when there are long histories of poverty and surpression. We have so much to protect and be thankful for in America.

I hope i am understanding your question,here goes.I believe the social problem that will give a true physical challenge is over population world wide.Every thing else involves changing how we think.Over population will create a real problem.

Well, the only way to get around that these days is to build your own computer.  Or you could try something really creative and problem solve the issue by yourself.

Hypocrisy, Corruption, Greed, Apathy, Foolishness, Political Correctness, Stupidity, Over-emotional sympathy, Idiocy, Lack of Resources, Irrationality...\n\nThis about covers the key and obvious reasons...

Sadly, the world is regressing.  The use of the internet, cell phones, DVD players in cars, etc. has caused us to become much more detached from our friends and family.  There is much less personal interaction anymore.  I don't think technology is ALL bad...of course you can meet new people online, or find out new info in an instant.  But, overall, the cons are outweighing the pros at this point.\n\nWe are soooo reliant on oil and electricity that we are going back to making enemies with MOST of the world.  More countries (Iran, N. Korea) have nuclear capabilities and are much more likely to use them than any countries in the past.  There are more extreme terrorists who can't be caught, less human intelligence to stop the terrorists, and our own coutnry's military is very diminished at this point.\n\nDespite MOSTLY overcoming years of racism and racial tension, things seem to be getting worse in that area again, with all the immigration debates/protests.  \n\nMost of the world's population live in 3rd world countries...diseases are widespread.  Despite working on the AIDS problem for 20+ years, we still do not have a cure or vaccine.  \n\nPeople don't think there's anything wrong with deteriorating morals...swearing is commonplace now, nudity on TV/movies is no big deal...violence is everywhere.  More than 50% of marriages end in divorce.  We are quickly depleting our natural resources.  the polar ice caps are melting.  Nature is becoming more extreme thanks to global warming.  Certain animals are dying out.  \n\nI have an advanced degree, have worked hard all my life, and still cannot afford to buy my own house.  In the 50s, most families owned houses and that was without the wife working!  Now I can't own my own house despite all my hard work and education.  This country...and the world are going to hell in a handbasket, and anyone who doesn't think so, hasn't lived long enough or looked around!
