“As the nation approaches its 57th Presidential Election, we’re asking the future leaders of this country, students, to define the single most important political issue in this election. Tell us not only what that issue is, but also tell us why and how you propose we come to a solution that benefits the majority?”

        The single most important political issue on this election would be the diminishing job market. This is most important because lots of people nowadays are loosing their jobs due to over spending and under budgeting by the politicians and wealthy company owners. Many companies are doing business out of country just to get a tax break leaving regular people who used to work for those companies out of a job. Also the people who are graduating from college and earn degrees for their field of study now have to compete with teens for low wage jobs in fast food restaurants and department stores etc. People who find it hard to get job, especially in the black and brown communities, and have been searching with no luck have given up. Then that raises the other issue of not being able to support themselves much less their families. They become homeless or have to depend on the government for public assistance. A way we can come to a solution that benefits the majority would be trying to lower the national debt because that’s the reason why there’s a struggle to find jobs. Or the government can tax the wealthier people instead of the poor, low income, working class, everyday people( mainly black and brown communities). They can also give tax breaks to small businesses so that they can create more jobs.
