Because social issues don't matter to our generation, what will the political battles be surrounded by? I'm sixteen. Most people my age could really care less that I'm gay. Yes, we are liberal and we are conservative, but the social issues don't matter. Sure some say deragatory words and can be ignorant, but nothing nearly hateful or as politically driven as some social conservatives have worked it out to be. Not that social issues have defined the current generation, but when today's teens are in their 40s what will be dividing us?

How to raise critical social issues on a big platform? I wanna raise some very important social,political and religious issues.I can suggest some new remedies of current and age old problems but I am unable to find a big platform yet. Can you suggest some way out ?

I know that issues such as gay marriage and abortion are extremely divisive for all our communities and groups, but surely there can be some social issues we can work together on! Here's my idea! I think all of us could agree on suicide prevention and helping those who are feeling suicidal!

How can we eliminate the madness of social issues? Social issues are little more than divisive arguments on trivial issues. Does is strongly matter if gays cannot marry, guns be unlimited, affirmative action abolished and similar events happen? Because we focus on such silly issues, we are ruining and undermining the real debate on fiscal and foreign issues. Both pertain to vital success and strength. Both left and right should ignore social issues. I think, we ought to compromise such as with the Compromise of 1850. We need to allow some concessions on the moral direction of our country to the liberals and some to the conservatives. Social issues are the focus of propositions, debates and other expression. We should ban anyone of ever speaking of a social issue again, for the debate will not stop otherwise. America is such an annoying nation and perhaps worthy of mocking because of how arrogant we are and how are heads are at gays when it should be on the economy. If you see a social activist for either side, throw them in a river. We Americans should solve greater problems because our budgets and money are used towards such trivial nonsense. Who wants to take social issues out of American debate? Can we shift our focus to the wars fought, eliminating poverty, and having a well-functioning nation?

What are the social issues with animal testing? What are all of the social issues associated with animal testing?

Social issues.? Someone who claimed to be studying psychology at school had diagnosed me with social anxiety. When I was telling them briefly about myself, about why I didn't drive and didn't work they were shocked. My reasonings were because I'm afraid of talking to people. I'm also afraid of rejection. (I have applied to a few places as far as a job goes, but I doubt they even consider my application when they see I don't have work experience at my age. I won't apply if I can't apply over a computer...) I mean, I know I need to own up to my responsibilities because my parents aren't going to be around forever to provide for me. I even have strangers telling me I need to get my act together, ugh. Problem being I just can't seem to get out of this funk I am in. I am 21, not licensed, don't drive, still live at home and have never worked a tax paying job. My question is to those who have experienced the same thing. How do you get out of something like this when trying to overcome your fears?

Why does conservatism on financial issues usually correlate with conservatism on social issues? It seems as if it is common to either be conservative on both financial and social issues, or liberal on both financial and social issues, hence the prominence of the Democratic and Republican parties. But the parties with different combinations of these stances, Populists and Libertarians, are relatively minor. It doesn't seem as if there is any logical reason someone more liberal on social issues would tend to be liberal on financial issues, as the two types of issues are fairly distinct.
