INTRODUCTION
■A social issue is a problem that influences many citizens within a society. It is a common problem in present-day society and one that many people strive to solve.
■There can be disagreements about what social issues are worth solving, or which should take precedence. Different individuals and different societies have different perceptions.
■In Rights of Man and Common Sense, Thomas Paine addresses the individual's duty to "allow the same rights to others as we allow ourselves." The failure to do so causes the creation of a social issue.
■There are a variety of methods people use to combat social issues. Some people vote for leaders in a democracy to advance their ideals. Outside the political process, people donate or share their time, money, energy, or other resources. This often takes the form of volunteering.
