Companies should provide sport and social facilities for local communities. To what extent do you agree?

It is an irrefutable fact that

sports

and social

facilities

strengthen the bond between the members of local communities.

Therefore

, some people suggest that

companies

should create recreational

facilities

for local communities. I do not agree with

this

opinion, because I believe that in a market economy, social

facilities

should be the responsibility of the

government

. The following paragraphs will highlight my opinion along with relevant examples. To commence with, recreational

facilities

are necessary for individuals. Various parks,

sports

grounds promote a healthy lifestyle. At the end of the day, people can take a walk and wind down their minds coping with stress.

However

, if these amenities are provided by market players, they can see it as an opportunity to promote their business.

As a result

, the main purpose of parks would be an advertisement of goods and services rather than recreation.

For example

, a joint community of

companies

in Tashkent built a new park called Magic Land for children. But the park is full of stores and billboards of investor

companies

.

Moreover

, some market players cannot bear the expenses of these kinds of

facilities

.

This

means that stronger

companies

would get more customers' attention, thereby posing a threat to small enterprises.

Thus

, I believe that the

government

should take the responsibility to provide

sports

and social

facilities

for local communities. These

facilities

can be funded with taxpayers money.

For instance

, the Turkish

government

provides

sports

facilities

in every park, thereby promoting a healthy lifestyle. To conclude, I strongly believe that social amenities should be provided by the

government

rather than

companies

. Businesses involvement would mean more advertisement and increased consumer spendings.
