Society Flashcards
What social problems are there in your country?
There are so many.
I believe some of them might be Child labor, Abortion, or traffic jam.
For me personally, abortion is the most important social problem that needs to be addressed as quickly as possible. I’m pro-life and so I don’t support abortion.
What can be done to alleviate poverty?
I believe there are numerous ways
I believe that if we encourage people to become entrepreneurs, we could create more jobs and this is the best way to generate income for poor people.
But I also believe that education is the key and so the government should fix the educational system first so that students have the right skill to earn more income.
These ways, I believe will definitely help alleviate poverty
Are there many charities in your country?
Of course, there are.
But I have to say, like many other things, there are good and bad charities. I believe that putting my money in good charities is a more desirable thing to do so you should know beforehand which one is the one you prefer rather than just give money without any knowledge of how it’s gonna be spent.
What is the difference between major crime and minor crime?
Well it really depends on the country you live in
But in general, I don’t know much about crime but I believe a major crime is on a much higher level that has a big impact on other’s lives (such as murder)
WHEREAS a minor crime does not have much of an impact on society (such as shoplifting)
But still, I believe any crime is bad.
Do you think all criminals should go to prison?
Absolutely not
Of course, I believe some criminals should go to prison as a deterrence.
The problem here is the word ALL in your question. I believe some criminals need to be sentenced to death (such as murder). I don’t think murderers should go to prison, they should be killed. If they don’t want to be killed in the first place, just don’t commit the crime. Don’t kill.
Why do so many people move to live in cities?
There are so many reasons.
First, better employment. If you want to have a job, I believe it’s always better to move to a city where you have many more opportunities
Second, the standard of living. For me personally, I enjoy the convenience of living in a big city because I can buy anything I want easily. Put me in a countryside area and I will not be happy. Who doesn’t want to live more conveniently?
What problems does overpopulation cause?
Well, I believe overpopulation might cause hunger in the long run
If we are not innovative enough to come up with ways to feed all the population, we might be going through a food supply shortage in the future, which might increase food prices
I know this might sound like a long-term issue but if we don’t take action early enough, that will lead to a whole host of other issues. So I believe we should also pay attention to the food issues, which might often be ignored.
