Human Nature
Dickens was admired not only as a novelist but also as a social critic, and in "Oliver Twist," he uses his sharp eye to dissect the weaknesses of human nature. The social canvas of the novel, which includes the poor underclass of London and the criminal justice system designed to contain it, allows Dickens to explore what happens when humans are reduced to the basest conditions.
Society and Class
As the story of a poor orphan and, more generally, the downtrodden, "Oliver Twist" is filled with Dickens' thoughts about the role of class in English society. The author is highly critical of the institutions that protect the upper classes while leaving the poor to starve and die. Throughout the book, Dickens raises questions about how society organizes itself and treats its worst-off members.

They will use eye-catching headlines and fierce words such as "slavery" and "oppression" to attack those countries. But as it is actually happening in the US, only a few outlets pay attention. A handful of their bland reports can hardly attract the attention of the whole country. Unconsciously, the double standard of the US on such issues has harmed the US itself. It has lowered its own moral standards, making American society as a whole apathetic.
If the young people are strong, the country will be strong. At the very least, US' failure to protect the rights and interests of the child will only harm the teenagers and their families. More broadly, it will affect the improvement of the whole country's moral fiber. This will cause irreparable damage to the US. As a result, the US decay will be accelerated as well.
