... than correcting the cause of the problems. More prisons, more policemen, gun control, the FBI, and V-chips to block violent programs on TV will never stop crime and violence. When we devote time, money and effort toward problems and symptoms -- without correcting the cause -- the problems and symptoms grow and spread like creeping crab grass. But as an individual, what can one do? The answer is simple. All one has to do is love. Love is the solution to all of the social problems in our society. Adequate love will eliminate evil, crime, violence, mental suffering, the suffering of innocent children, dysfunctional families, the break-up of families, restlessness, di ...

... Modern socialist ideology, however, is essentially a joint product of the 1789 French Revolution and the Industrial Revolution in England--the word socialist first occurred in an English journal in 1827. These two great historical events, establishing democratic government in France and the conditions for vast future economic expansion in England, also engendered a state of incipient conflict between the property owners (the bourgeoisie) and the growing class of industrial workers; socialists have since been striving to eliminate or at least mitigate this conflict.

... children who are without permanent homes in the United States, crossing the color bar is frowned upon by many people. The debate over transracial adoption is whether or not it is in the best interest of the child. The problem in today's society is that foster care is preferred over transracial adoption. The reason being the children and youth services would rather put a black child in foster homes of that race instead of letting a white couple adopt it because they are white. They believe that putting a black child in white family would culturally damage that child, that they would grow up not knowing their heritage. They believe that a parent of a different ...

We are able to see them play fighting and when asked who they are trying to imitate, they often respond with the words " Power Rangers" . Many television programs contain violence portrayed in ironic contexts. For example heroic "good-guy" characters commit aggression, consequences of violence are unseen, and aggression goes unpunished or seems justified. For example, one cartoon featured four heroes who used their superior strength to beat up villains who were trying to freeze the world. The villains escape unscathed. The heroes congratulated each other. Young children are unable to distingu ...

Because all types of people use illegal substances, pinpointing one specific group to “bust” is not effective. Recently, we have tried to track the location of drug use. We find places where drugs tend to be, and seek to close them down as an effort to decrease the overall use of drugs. This has proved to be an ineffective technique because it does not change people's craving for drugs. Reasons leading up to drug use still exist. Arresting people for drugs does not kill their desire to use them. Closing down a crac ...
