    The three most pressing social issues in the United States today are the economy, lack of appropriate education, and our priorities. In the U.S. today our national debt is over fifteen trillion dollars. Our national unemployment rate is 8.5%. Big businesses seem to continue to flourish at the working classes’ expense. When the wealthy lose their jobs, they tend to have “nest eggs” or resources that they can rely on until another position comes available. Yes, they sometimes have to make sacrifices until they get other means of employment, but usually that doesn’t mean whether to feed themselves or their children. Many people have lost their homes and self-worth along with the economic down fall. This really leads into my next social problem: education. Our educational systems are flooded with all the politically correct information and the testing requirements, that we have lost sight of some value basic information. Many students are able to recite book knowledge, but cannot demonstrate basic common sense. Although, I know that classes like “home ec” are not popular anymore, but maybe a small portion should be mandatory. Teaching our youth about balancing their personal budgets might lead to someone helping our national debt. And if they learned about nutrition and how to cook, then maybe obesity would decline. Finally, is the concern over our nation’s priorities. We say that freedom, security, education is all important, but look at what we spend our money on. We pour millions of dollars into professional athletes, but not into our children’s education or their educators. When we have to wait at airport security or are subject to a luggage search we grumble, but yet we demand security. We want freedom to choice anything we want, but protest when others choose differently than us. There are more social issues I would love to discuss, but with any of these issues come needed resolution that I unfortunately do not possess.…

    In the context of human service words sometimes take different meanings. A problem specifies the term that must be used in the eligibility rules determining who is and who is not entitled to benefits or services and specifies the general goals to be achieved. A good example of this would be determined if someone was eligible for Medicaid or needed another insurance program. A policy typically described as a principle or rule to guide decisions and achieve rational outcomes. The regulation of the practice of abortions would be a type of policy one might look into. A program is a plan of action to accomplish a specified end. This is very critical because the public and the individual legislator need to know what the interest of the group truly is. A new law being passed in the human service field would definatly be a good example of this (Chambers).…

    Many believed the charges in Florida for aggravated abuse of an elderly person or disabled adult were too lenient. Because of these concerns there was a change in Florida law to solve this problem. On July 1, 2008 Florida law was changed to ease the worries of those seeking justice for their loved ones. Bill 825.102 redefined the severity of first and second degree charges. The changed bill states that “A person who commits aggravated abuse of an elderly person or disabled adult commits a felony of the first degree…” and “A person who willfully or by culpable negligence neglects an elderly person or disabled adult without causing great bodily harm, permanent disability, or permanent disfigurement to the elderly person or disabled adult commits a felony of the third degree..”…
