Public policy has always been an integral part of society that shapes the way we live and interact with the people around us. They are usually well intentioned with the goal of promoting order and safety for its citizens, but sometimes that is not the case. With the emergence of HIV/AIDS in the United States, laws have been created in order to decrease the incidence rate but has instead increased stigma around HIV/AIDS.
