Should wealthy nations be required to share their wealth among poorer nations by providing such things as food and education? Or is it the responsibility of the governments of poorer nations to look after their citizens themselves?

While some folks believe that rich
nations

should use their wealth to provide foodstuff and schooling to poor people in under-developed
nations
Use synonyms
, others argue that taking care of the poor population is the responsibility of their respective governments. I will discuss why, in my opinion, the wealthier nation should share their wealth even if it is resource-related or teaching programs, with other poorer
nations
Use synonyms
. There are three main reasons why rich and industrialized
countries
Use synonyms
should help other states who are poorer from

point of view or even on a brink of collapse because of it. The
first
Linking Words
reason might be the fact that society from rich
countries
Use synonyms
and inhabitants from poor
countries
Use synonyms
share a thing: they’re humans. We cannot speak about a poor country, about its lack of
food
Use synonyms
, education, medicine or other important stuff without sympathy. Sharing things
such

as
food

and learning materials shouldn’t be a moral deed, but a very important task.
Secondly
Linking Words
, there are many poor regions in Asia or Africa
for example

, where famine, crimes, diseases and illiteracy are killing their citizens. Contrary, in Europe and America, the people are wealthy and
this
Linking Words
causes a very big discrepancy between the lives of their citizens and the lives of those who live in the
countries
Use synonyms
mentioned above. The main problem is that while the wealthy
countries
Use synonyms
become wealthier and the poorer are on a descending slope to being almost bankrupt, is that the people from those
countries
Use synonyms
might become “slaves” for the richer
ones
Use synonyms
. Many poor folks might leave their homes in search of a new beginning in some new, developed country.
Thirdly

,
although
Linking Words
sharing the wealth among poorer
countries
Use synonyms
regarding
food
Use synonyms
and education is a good idea, we shouldn’t stop here. Indeed, giving
food

to the
ones

who can’t afford an education to those in need is a good thing
however

some poor
nations
Use synonyms
need a jump start in their economical, medical and other departments too or else they might become dependent on aid. The citizens won’t be enthusiastic enough to start building their own country.
Additionally
Linking Words
, some wealthier
countries

might interfere in some poor
ones
Use synonyms
’ governments which is an inhumane thing to do. In conclusion, I would like to reinforce my opinion that wealthier
countries
Use synonyms
need to help poor
ones
Use synonyms
,
although
Linking Words
there might be some bad things too we must decide to ignore the bad
ones
Use synonyms
and start to work on the good things that
this

type of helping might unveil.

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
