Economic
development

is, for most governments, the greatest goal of all. Other people believe that
progress

in health and education are as important. In
this
Linking Words
essay, I will discuss both views and explain why these three types of
progress
Use synonyms
are equally essential for every
country
Use synonyms
. On the one hand, it is thought by many that economic
progress
Use synonyms
is the most important goal because it is how the
development
Use synonyms
of a
country
Use synonyms
is measured.
For example
Linking Words
, the difference between
first

world and
third
Linking Words
world countries is essentially the money produced by them. Another reason is that money makes people happier, less stressed and
consequently
Linking Words
, less mad at politicians.
For instance
Linking Words
, wealthy people do not complain about anything as they are satisfied with the life they carry,
therefore
Linking Words
if there is economic
development
Use synonyms
there will not be so many protest rallies on the streets.
On the other hand
Linking Words
, some think that health is an important determinant of a
country
Use synonyms
's level of
development
Use synonyms
. India, in like manner, has a worse quality of life than Argentina because of the larger amount of preventable diseases they suffer
such

as diarrhoea. If people are ill and have to take medicines daily and require special care, the quality of life is noticeably reduced. Another important type of
progress
Use synonyms
is in education. The proportion of professionals in a
country
Use synonyms
is thought to be an essential measure of its
development
Use synonyms
.
For instance
Linking Words
, places where best universities are located, are known for their excellence and the quality workers they produce. In conclusion, while some politicians consider that economic
progress
Use synonyms
in their
country
Use synonyms
is the most important goal, in my opinion,
development
Use synonyms
in health and in education has been and should be just as essential. Adequate living conditions are ensured not only by money, but
also
Linking Words
by good sanitary measures and learning institutions.
Therefore
Linking Words
,
this
Linking Words
should always be taken into account when deciding on what measures to apply.
