In many countries, a few people earn very high salaries. Some people think that this is a positive thing for the country. Other people believe that governments should not allow salaries to be over a certain level. Discuss both opinions and give your own opinion.

To a certain extend a

salary

of an individual defines his economic stability, rise in the salaries of individuals will directly lead to the growth of the economy.

However

, it has been a controversial topic and many people are in agreement that the

government

should put a limit on the

remuneration

earned by an individual. In my essay I will discuss both the views before I draw a conclusion. To start with, the higher

remuneration

among people can cause disparities among the individuals. We have seen among the corporate, a number of people on the higher role are being paid extravagant remunerations as compared to the mid and senior level employees.

However

, I do agree to a certain extent that, looking at their role they do deserve a higher perk, but

this

huge difference can

also

lead to de-motivating the lower levels.

In addition

, there are

also

professionals which do not deserve a higher

remuneration

.

For example

, the actors and actresses get a huge amount of

salary

, which in my view is not very deserving. Whereas, the people in the army, nurses, doctors deserve to be paid more due to the services offered by them to the community.

On the other hand

, if the

government

caps a limit on the

remuneration

of the people.

This

would lead on reducing the zeal of people wanting to excel in their professions. If the

remuneration

is limited people, will not work as hard to reach towards their goals.

This

could

also

de-motivate a number of deserving people, who deserve higher perks for their achievements and hard work.

In addition

, if the

salary

is limited, it is

also

difficult to differentiate the roles between people, as all could possibly work at a similar

remuneration

. In conclusion, if the

government

puts a cap on the

remuneration

of an individual he would help in reducing the disparities among people,

however

this

would

also

de-motivate people who deserve to be paid higher. In my view, the

government

should try and balance the

salary

among various professionals and should ensure that a few sets of people should not be paid higher salaries.
