The trial technique includes controls, particularly to control (hypothetically) every one of the elements you think about related to the subject EXCEPT ONE, and afterward making sense of how changing that factor differs the outcomes.

Social issues exist in a domain in which you can't build up huge controls; by harsh definition, a social issue is an issue that exists in a general public at large, there is no real way to set up huge controls on the general public everywhere.

An experiment is a study of cause and effect. The experimental method involves deliberate manipulation of one variable while keeping the other variables constant. All the pertinent factors are controlled except one. Then it is observed how changes in that particular factor bring about changes in the result.

Social problems exist in a realm which cannot be controlled significantly. Social issues exist in a society at large so significant controls cannot be established.
