What are the five most challenging social problems facing the United States today?

What are the five most challenging social problems facing the United States today?

There are hundreds of millions of people living in the United States, and I have no doubt that each would give a different answer if asked this question, relative to their own age, location and other demographics. However, in my opinion, and in no particular order, the five largest social problems facing American society are --


  • desensitization to violence, immorality through media and cultural standards
  • degeneration of the family unit
  • economic unrest resulting in social and political unrest
  • class separation (rich getting richer, poor getting poorer)
  • consumerism and commercialism becoming the focus of our culture
