Some countries improve their economy to gain a high standard of living, but some social values can be lost during this transition. Do you think the advantages of this outweigh the disadvantages? Give your opinion and examples. During the last 40 years many important changes have happened in different aspects of our life. In many parts of the world factories along with labor forces are working 24/7 to increase financial indexes. Dreaming about a better place to live in, human beings are extracting more and more minerals from old Mother Nature to produce more wealth. Although most of the new theories in this century encourage nations to produce more wealth to have a better life, many credible researches show there is not a direct relation between an acceptable level of living and highly economic successes. I believe that the economy is one of the main building blocks of a successful country. However, the question is to what extentd the economy can lead nations to a better life? Focusing on economy can lead to a materialistic society where people are far from one another, different kinds of psychological disorders become popular, and in general people's main concern becomes materials. Regrettably in such societies many humane values have been replaced with materialistic valuesones. People are evaluated based on their wealth but not their understanding, and cruelty becomes something undeniable. Having Experienced such a terrible experience situation in communistm societies, developed countries are now concentrating on financial issues, and there is no doubt that people in those countriesy are enjoying a high level of life, but the most common problem they complain about is they rarely find time to enjoy their family. Children separate from their parents after 18, and in some cases rarely see their parents. They have to spend too much time at work in a waysuch that being workaholic is a common practice disorder amongst labor forces in those countries. Family as a praised social institution in traditional societies has lost it value in modern societies, and from my point of view it should be considered as an threat the existence of alarm to withdrawal one of the main building blocks of societies. In conclusion, I think economy serves as a double- edged sword. In other words, improvement of financial indexes definitely can boost quality of our life but we do not have to forget about its drawbacks. Focusing on economical advances can lead to new wave of psychological disorders that again demands an enormous amount of time, energy and money to overcome them it. I hope we can learn how to balance our lives in both physical and emotional aspects/parts, and share everything we have with one another regardless of race and borders/boundaries.
