Understanding Subordinating Conjunctions in Social Contexts
In many communities, social inequality persists because resources are unevenly distributed. Although some citizens advocate for equitable policies, others argue that individual effort is the key to success. Because of this division, progress often stalls, and solutions remain elusive. When policymakers consider new initiatives, they must weigh various factors, including economic impact and social justice. Since awareness of these issues has increased, public debates have become more frequent, yet tangible change remains slow.
