In many countries, the government prioritises economic growth above all other concerns. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of this.

The government prefers economic growth over all other

problems

in many nations. The main advantage is that the

country

becomes rich and prosperous and the main drawback is other concerns

such

as pollution, health-related issues are increasing day by day. The major advantage to focusing more on financial growth than other

problems

is that the prosperity of the nation is increased and

people

of that

country

become rich.

This

is to say that if any

country

's economic condition is rich, the lifestyle of

people

will be modern.

As a result

, individuals can fulfil their needs and can buy anything they want.

For example

, the economic condition in America is very strong so most Americans can afford most of the basic things which can be afforded by the

people

who live in underdeveloped countries where the economic conditions are poor

such

as in India. The main cons of preferring economic growth over other

problems

is that

country

can face lots of health

problems

.

This

is because if government focus less on the

problems

such

as pollution, the

people

will become sick,

as a result

, the death rate would be increased.

For example

, a survey in America found that those countries that just focus on the development of the economy have more concern about health complications

such

as obesity. In conclusion, a nation is concentrating more on economic power will lead to more prosperous and rich nations but the main disadvantage is that it will rise to lots of heath related diseases.
