Some think Government spending on Infrastructure (Transport, Housing etc) is considered the most important for a nation. While others believe that Education, Health and HR values to be more important areas for government expenditure. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

The world is evolving at a fast pace today and if proper amenities like

education
and healthcare are not provided to the public,
then
we might end up being stagnant in the phase of evolution. I firmly believe that

the government must spend enough, on both housing and
education
equally for the nation to prosper as a whole. In
this
essay, I shall discuss why both the points are important for a nation's growth, and are inter-dependent, as per my knowledge.
Firstly
, let's see what might be the consequences if more money is spent on
infrastructure
rather than on intangible areas

For instance
, if we don't study hard enough to understand, every aspect of development in our society, we might end up building poor structures which, in turn

might put people in grave situations.
Secondly
, if conventional frameworks are used in the country,

lifestyle.
Additionally
, there would be no motivation for the young bright minds to better their future.
Hence
