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

I barely agree. In my opinion, increasing the income of poor

people

could be a method to create a better world, but not the best way because

this

method could bring both positive and negative effects to society. I am going to write about both the merits and the drawbacks in

this

essay. Letting poor residents become rich could be beneficial for the country. As poor individuals have a similar salary to rich

people

, they are able to have a better-quality life.

For example

,

people

having poor financial conditions are able to buy a bigger house to live in, afford their utilities or even have good healthcare.

Besides

, families having worse economic conditions could support their children to access better education.

However

, narrowing the gap between the rich and the poor communities could

also

result in some side effects.

For instance

, if an authority subsidizes poor

people

with a good amount of money, it would lead to a big economic issue - inflation. It will influence all

people

in the whole region, no matter the rich or the poor.

Besides

, it will damage the economy of other nations as well.

In addition

, government funding may cause recipients not to like to work again rather than enjoy their life, as it is human nature. In conclusion, I believe making everyone have similar income only has a limited effect on a happier society. The negative result in the nation would overwhelm the positive influence on the poor public, so the government need to implement other policies to produce a more satisfied community.
