Income Gap
1There has been a heated discussion over the growing income gap now. Some people hold that the gap is natural because it 2reflects different contributions that different people make in their work. 3In their view, those people with high income work hard and long. Besides, these people bring high 4efficiency, and create more wealth. Accordingly, they deserve high pay.
1On the other hand, there are always some people who view this gap negatively. They believe that a lot of crimes happen as a result of this income gap. Some people make so little from their work that they 2risk taking criminal acts to get rich. In fact, experts have long found out that most cases of crime are directly related to low income. There is 3another point to 4back up a negative view against income gap. For most people, income gap may destroy the satisfaction
that they obtain from work.
1As anything has two sides, so has the problem of income gap. Personally, I believe that this gap may 2motivate people to compete better in job market. When this gap is growing too
wide, however, our government should make some policies to 3get rid of its negative consequences.
