How and why do word meanings change?

Our English (American version) is changing before our very eyes. The word issue , which meant topic, now means problem. Okay, so we added a meaning for the word issue. Can anyone tell me how or why the phrase pushback the date means to move it ahead? This makes no sense to me. I hear it frequently, so it must have some logic for somebody.
