It is impossible for governments to help all the people in the world who need helps, so governments should focus only on helping people in their own countries. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
In recent years, it seems that the gap between the rich and poor is widening in both individuals and
countries
. However
, it is unlikely for wealthy governments
to assist all people
living in poverty and thus
some people
think that they can concentrate only on helping their own citizens. I partly agree with this
view.
One main reason in favour of this
opinion is that it is the obligation of the governments
to help their individuals living in pain and struggling. This
is because governments
monthly impose taxes on almost every working adult. Thus
, I believe they should offer education to children from poor families, supply health care to patients who can not afford medical fees and allocate part of funds for pensions to support the well-being of retired, elderly people
. Only by this
, will adults who are making money be willing to pay taxes to governments
, which is the base of the normal function of a nation. However
, we should recognise that there still exist some people
, in particular
those in underdeveloped countries
, who can not have access to basic living conditions, such
as a tidy flat, clean water and sufficient food, and their government does not have the resources and funds to assist them.
Thus
, I think it is the governments
with the ability, especially those in developed nations, who should cooperatively help their counterparts to get away from trouble because we are the only humans on Earth. For example
, they can first send some food and help them build necessary infrastructure, such
as roads and drainage systems, to satisfy their primary lives and improve their hygiene conditions. Then
, they can send some exceptional doctors, leading agricultural professors and educationalists to assist in cultivating the professionals there, which will make a difference in the long-term development of those countries
and help their people
fundamentally. Then
, there will be fewer people
needing help and this
is the meaning of human, from my perspective.
In conclusion, I think governments
should prioritise citizens in their own countries
, but if they have the ability, it is necessary for them to make a joint effort to assist other people
in trouble.Submitted by 1378468145 on
