Essay / How to Make the World a Better Place - 814
When my mother saw beggars standing at the intersection asking for help, my mother tried to help them by giving them money, but my father said you shouldn't help because it would only encourage them to rely on help from others. My father says they should be helped by the government rather than individuals. It is not our responsibility to take care of them. I disagree with both because they don't examine or think about it enough. I think people not only face problems of wealth, but also problems of disease and war. These are also issues that many people face in many other countries as well. If we work together, maybe we can help each other and make this world a better place. In my opinion, there are several solutions that poor and rich countries could implement together that would benefit both. Disease prevention is the responsibility of every country, whether poor or rich. Poor countries lack the knowledge and money to acquire and develop their medical resources. As a result, many people could not be cured. In rich countries, diseases evolve at incredible speed. Patients are dying because pharmaceutical companies don't have enough data to produce vaccines to cure patients. When developed countries help poor countries heal their populations, developed countries could help underdeveloped countries. Since developed countries can provide more medical resources to poor countries, people living in poor countries could be cured. As for developed countries, they can take samples from patients so that pharmaceutical companies can produce new vaccines against new diseases. By trying to cure diseases, both developed and poor countries would paper...... middle of paper......could boost their economies. This would also benefit poor countries. Since developed countries stabilized energy prices, food prices in underdeveloped countries would not increase. So people in poor countries could buy food and survive. When rich countries solve energy crises, they also save millions of people living in poor countries. Ultimately, countries that cooperate and do not discriminate against each other will help themselves and allow the world to prosper. If these developed countries continue to prejudice underdeveloped countries based on their wealth or other conditions, while people are facing serious societal problems, these problems become global. By helping each other, all countries offer hope and compassion and share new knowledge with each other. So people around the world would suffer less because they know they are not alone..
