Some people believe that the best way to build a happier society is to ensure that there are only small differences between the richest and the poorest members. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
In today's world, one of the most concerning issues for every government is to have a happier
society
. Some individuals think that having fewer social class differences
between people
can make them happier, and I totally agree with this
statement. In this
essay, I will discuss the relevant reasons behind this
issue.
To begin
with, the first
reason is that differences
between members of societies
cause violence and unsafety which remove happiness. In other words
, some people
cannot afford their expenses due to their lack of income, while others have too much money and spend their money in useless ways. This
difference makes some indigent people
commit a crime and it increases violence in society
. For example
, some poor people
start to steal affluent people
's luxury cars or expensive stuff, and people
cannot feel happy due to unsafety. Besides
this
, in some societies
, such
as Germany and Denmark, the social class differences
are very low and all people
are equal to each other. In these countries, the crime rate is very low and people
feel satisfied.
Furthermore
, another reason is that people
need the motivation to be happy and have a better life. In other words
, indigent people
are not satisfied with their life because of poverty and the lack of basic needs. Therefore
, their motivation to work and continue their life will decrease and they cannot be happy anymore. For instance
, in some societies
, many people
are struggling with their problems, such
as having a house and a job, due to mismanagement and they feel depressed about their societies
.
To sum up, differences
between the most affluent and the most indigent members of society
cause many problems and people
do not feel happy. In my opinion, to build a more pleasant society
these differences
should be removed and the society
members should be equal to each other.Submitted by marzieh.sadeghi1991 on
