Most important issue with American society

[Noctredors]

What is the most important issue with 21st century American society regarding civil rights and immigration?

[breadisfunny]

thats kind of presumptious to imply that the most important issue of the century is immigration when you have the middle-lower class barely able to scrap together a living having to work multiple jobs in some cases. your title is a bit misleading.

[Dsonsion]

The most difficult issue with immigration is the way you people have demonized it.

You misunderstand Breadisfunny, he's asking what's the biggest issue within the subjects of civil rights and immigration.

We aren't literally Sweden.

im getting the feeling this thread is going somewhere not good. just got a hunch lets call it.

[The One Percent]

3E - Education, Environment, Economy

In that order. If a country has those handled, everything else falls into place neatly.

my point was if the title is asking whats the most important issue with american society then he proceeds to make it about immigration it should be mentioned in the title.

I consider it more of a Freudian slip than an attempt to take the thread in a poor direction. I would bet your right that the OP has negative feelings about immigration and would probably bet he/she is from an EU country where it is a big issue.

The most important issue with America today is neither of those... IMO it's the culturally perpetuated delusion of Self-only interest and not recognizing the power of community and a basic sense of morality for humanity working together to benefit all instead of a few.

Education isn't terrible, could use some improvement.
Obama is pissing off a few states with his environment plan.
Economy is improving a good bit, more than most of Europe at least.

Most don't even make an attempt in integrate, just take advantage of an old out of date welfare system and reap the benefits.

Wow yeah, it's serious biz huh? I mean, how DARE someone word something wrong! I guess I should feel honored to be in the presence of someone like you who is obviously not only mentally superior to us normal humans, but is also not afraid to voice their opinion on something, no matter how totally unimportant it is. If I may, I'd like to read through all of your old posts in the slightest hope that I may gain even the tiniest fraction of your god-like intelligence...to get even the slightest glimpse into the mind of a being whose knowledge is even more vast than that of the universe itself. For you are perfection, breadisfunny, and you grace us by devoting your time right HERE on this very forum! I swear, my eyes are tearing up with happiness as I type this, I've had to stop several time now to wipe them. Why am I so happy? Because just the slightest bit of hope that you may read this is filling me with such intense joy! I bet when you open a page here on the forum you are able to use your superior intelligence to just see every word at once and mentally process what the entire page said immediately, scanning for wording that may be wrong so that you can once again point out the stupidity of a common human.

Probably the political structure is the most twisted thing. Where lobbyists are rampant, and 2 parties only maintain a facade of good will, being generally corrupt and self-serving.

Most redneck Americans don't integrate to anything either. The same redneck white trash Americans also abuse the welfare system. A lot of christian right wing idiots don't integrate themselves into education especially when it comes to evolution and climate science. A lot of white right wingers don't integrated themselves to the logic that birth control is a good thing and should be available to everyone in society. The same redneck white trash american hillbillies are the same ones that marry girls when they are 14 or even younger but they are against sex education in schools and birth control.

These are Americans. How could immigrants be any worse for America than these people are. The same kind of people who think its just for a very few people to horde all the capital, and possessions from everyone else. How could immigrants make things any worse than that? The same goes with civil rights. Usually the people who abuse peoples civil rights would abuse anyone's civil rights that they had the power to do so. Have you ever met a bigot that wasn't an all around asshole anyways?
Not I.

Which is also a problem, dont think this is about immigrants but about people who self-segregate, being generally, more common on certain immigrant groups, but not restricted to obviously.

OT: no idea, not my culture, while i can think of some problems that are obvious as an outside they dont have much weight considering i lack the necessary exposure.
I would say you should be more worried about the general management of your country/corruption than necessarily social issues, those can be solved at state-level with social pressure and will happen sooner or later, atm being able to live without dangling close to the poverty line seems to be a bigger issue in the US.

Skyrocketing costs of health care and higher education.

Single Payer Healthcare System would be about the most important issue regarding those two things.

If you are trying to suggest that the most important issue with 21st century American society is immigration or civil rights, I would have to disagree with you.

Right to free/cheap education and healthcare would be the highest goals i would think.

Gonna take a stab at this. Religious fundamentalism.
