Jason's speech should be as follows:
"Drug abuse in America's cities <u><em>are</em></u><u> </u>on the rise every day. About 20% more elementary school kids get hooked on narcotics today<u><em>, </em></u> than in the 1960s. So, we can easily see that we've got a big problem. Now<em><u>,</u></em> let's talk about what we can do about it.
Explanation:
In the first sentence Jason uses the incorrect auxiliary verb as the noun referred to is a plural noun and not a singular noun. <em>(Plural Noun = America's cities, therefore the plural auxiliary verb = are)</em>
<em />
In the second sentence, a comma may be added for pause to show the comparison between the present and the past. <em>(... narcotics today</em><u><em>, </em></u><em> than in the 1960s.)</em>
<em />

The excerpt from Lord Byron's Childe Harold's pilgrimage that most clearly describes a state of alienation is the third one:
C. But soon he knew himself the most unfit / of men to herd with man.
He says here that he isn't the type to be around other people, which is why he prefers to be around himself only. Although that doesn't mean he doesn't like or want to be around other people, it is just that he doesn't know how to and is thus alienated.
