In recent times, young adults are spending less time with their families and more time with their friends. Why has this change occurred? Do you think parents should force their children to spend more time at home?

Technology

seems to promise infinite benefits for mankind. While it could be argued that the development of new

technology

Use synonyms

always expands the

gap

Use synonyms

between rich and poor, it is

also

Linking Words

true that the level of

technology

Use synonyms

used in developing countries and low-income countries has been quicker than the developed countries over the

last

Linking Words

few years and

this

Linking Words

has helped to bridge the

gap

Use synonyms

between the rich and the poor. So, both views have some ground, which I shall be discussing in

this

Linking Words

essay. There are many reasons why people say that

technology

Use synonyms

increases the

gap

Use synonyms

between rich and poor.

To begin

Linking Words

with, new

technology

Use synonyms

itself tends to be affordable by only the richer elements of society and the poorer elements are denied the opportunities that

this

Linking Words

provides,

such

Linking Words

as the

ability

Use synonyms

to be able to train for better paid work. It is understandable that because of their

ability

Use synonyms

to acquire new

technology

Use synonyms

, the learning

ability

within the richer elements of society is much improved.

Therefore

Linking Words

, they get better job placements and continue to grow

further

Linking Words

. What is more, with the power that wealth and knowledge brings, richer segments are more able to exert influence over the direction of society, usually to their own benefit. The poorer segment does not have

this

Linking Words

ability

Use synonyms

, and

therefore

Linking Words

their demands and needs tend to be driven lower down the list of political priorities.

On the other hand

Linking Words

, there are reasons to hold the opposite view. While it is true that the initial level of

technology

Use synonyms

in lower-income countries was much lower

to begin

Linking Words

with, there is strong evidence of catch-up between middle-income and high-income countries. Technological progress increased 40% to 60% faster in developing countries than in rich countries. Use of some new technologies,

such

Linking Words

as mobile phones, has risen quickly.

Technology

Use synonyms

has created huge opportunities for the poor where none existed previously.

For example

Linking Words

, some technologies

such

Linking Words

as communications or networking give poor people a chance to earn a better living. It is not uncommon for some people who used to live in poverty becoming millionaires or billionaires by taking advantage of the internet.

This

Linking Words

has definitely led to narrowing the

gap

Use synonyms

between the rich and the poor. To put it in a nutshell, I pen down, saying that

technology

Use synonyms

can do both – widen the

gap

Use synonyms

between the rich and poor as well as narrow the

gap

Use synonyms

if the poor get access to it.

Therefore

Linking Words

, it is not the

technology

Use synonyms

to blame for the

gap

Use synonyms

; it is the access to

technology

Use synonyms

which is to blame. So, we should see to it that everyone gets equal access to

technology

.
