MONEY RULES THE WORLD


Money rules the world a matter of considerable controversy at present is the fact whether money rules the world. There is not doubt that money offers people with the possibility to have access to basic necessities as health and education as well. However, while money is seemed as a requirement in order to have a comfortable life, it cannot be denied that money is often believed to be the main cause for conflicts among people, what is more among countries.
To start with it, many support the view that money enables people to fulfil their necessities which range from basic human necessities, for instance food and clothes, to unimaginable sophisticated things, such as jewellery and masterpieces of sculpture or painting. Furthermore, it is often argued that money influences in people’s relations. This is clearly shown by the fact that wealthy businessmen are more respected than ordinary people. Another major advantage of money is that it is believe to be vital for survival given that in the field of medicine many improvements were achieved in order to save lives thanks to the opportunities offered by money.
On the other hand, many people claim that one of the factors in life, which is more important than money, is health. Despite the fact that those who are in high income and are able to afford the best medical care for their relatives, who suffer from terminal diseases, money does not give guarantee for a longer healthy life. Finally, an additional drawback of money is the clash that it causes among people, not to mention the fact that money is the main cause of conflicts between countries. It is generally suggested to many wars were started by powerful countries with the intention of gaining more economic powers. Therefore, many people who live in a powerless country are deprived of the means to obtain proper nutrition and health care.
Taking everything into account, the obvious conclusion to be drawn is that money rules the world given that money is necessary to fulfil our basic necessities and to improve health cares, as well. However, I firmly think that money does not provide us with a longer or better life due to the fact that money is not the solution to many things as terminal diseases or to have peace in our world.
