Some people believe that the best way to produce a happier society is to ensure that there are only small differences between the richest and the poorest members. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Some individuals hold the view that achieving minor

income

disparity between the rich and the poor is the key to a happier

society

. While I agree that

narrowing

Suggestion

the narrowing wealth gap

wealth

gap

can improve the well-being of people, I doubt that a small amount of

income

difference is realistic and the outcome would be completely positive. On the one hand, it is unarguable that closing

income disparity

Suggestion

the income disparity

can benefit the public and the whole

society

. Wide

wealth

differences may lead to resentment from impoverished people and cause the rise of crime rates and even social unrest.

Therefore

, narrowing the

gap

can contribute to the improvement of average people’s living standard and building a safer

society

. If the

income

gap

was very small between

the richest

Suggestion

the rich

and the poorest,

every body

all people

everybody

would have enough food and clothing, proper housing, and could afford their daily expenses. There may not be stealings or robberies at all, and conflicts and discriminations

arised

located or moved above the surround or above the normal position

raised

by financial issues would not happen, neither. In

such

society

, people are expected to be satisfied and happy.

On the other hand

, I do not think

this

kind of

society

is realistic. Because every individual has his or her own

personanility

the complex of all the attributes--behavioral, temperamental, emotional and mental--that characterize a unique individual

personality

, skills and strengths, which lead to different levels of career achievements and difference in the amount of material possession.

Furthermore

, if everyone had similar

income

, most people would be

demotivated

to work hard to create more

wealth

or a better life.

As a result

, the economy would be stagnant and citizen’s life standard would not be guaranteed. In my opinion, there are many other factors which influence people’s well-being except the

wealth

gap

. Governments’ efforts on improving the masses’ health condition, ensuring equal educational and professional opportunities for all, improving laws and social democracy would help general people to live a happier life as well. In conclusion, it seems to me that the idea of closing the social

income

disparity to a very small amount is not possible, and it is neither not the best way to realize a happier

society

.
