Or S.A.; When a major, unexpected, unfortunate event happens, which was caused by hatred and or corruption, it usually prompts the government and various populations in society to quickly mobilize to address the issue that caused the event occur, even if relatively little is known about the problem. The result of this mobilization is an avalanche of social, economic, and or political changes and reform efforts meant to prevent the issue from reoccurring and or to make it less severe when it does occur. The event produces many consequences, some are noticed immediately, while are others don’t get quite so much attention until a later point in time.
An example of a societal avalanche is the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. When the oil spill happened, governmental agencies from numerous countries found in and around the Gulf of Mexico rushed to try to clean up the oil spill. People volunteered with various environmental organizations to save as many of trapped fish, birds, and turtles as they could. Many members of the public, environmental groups, and local fishing companies pushed politicians to pass stricter regulations for companies drilling for oil offshore, pass policies to get the U.S. to get more of its energy supply from more renewable sources that are safer to employ, and pass laws to provide financial relief to the local fishing companies that were negatively impacted by the accident. An investigation from BP and the U.S. government later revealed that lack of regard for safety policies and the rushed, cheap construction of the rig were responsible for the accident.

The more time that has passed since the person died, the less society and the government value them as an individual. How rapidly this process occurs depends on how important society viewed the person as being, how they died, and how many close friends and family the individual had.
Person 1: Isaiah was nice guy. Its a shame more people don't remember who he was and how much he helped this community. Its only been five years since he died.
Person 2: Yeah. Unfortunately, a lot of people have forgotten about him and value him that much anymore. He is a victim of the Individual societal value erosion effect, which is very unfortunate.

Get the Bambi kissed mug.A major social problem that arises when an individual sets their romantic expectations and standards too high for decent people, who the individual likes, to be able to achieve. Normally it is fine to have some standards, but when descent people are unable to fulfill those expectations because of the large number of them and or because the expectations require extremely large amounts money and resources, require the individual to be in perfect physical shape that most people are not able to achieve, and or require the individual to be skilled at doing things that most people don’t know how to do that well, then the individual's expectations may be set too high. This is highly unethical to do, because extremely high standards tend to be very unreasonable and can prevent decent people from being able to get into a romantic relationship due to factors far beyond control.
Annabeth: Why is Emma so upset?
Lauren: She was in a relationship with a Johnny, but he dumped her because she supposedly didn't fulfill his expectations. The thing was his expectations were very unreasonable to begin with. He expects his partner to have flat abs, not to talk to other boys at all, and spend most of her time with him.
Annabeth: He sounds very inconsiderate. I am sure she will find someone better than him who knows how to treat their partner with respect. It sounds like Emma is another victim of the High Romantic Standards Dilemma.
Lauren: Agreed.
