Some people are of the opinion that uneven distribution of wealth among citizens is causing greater concerns leading to many social evils and disparities.

• Do you agree or disagree with this view?
• Do you think it is possible to achieve even distribution of wealth?

Social anomalies are as old as human life, and there are innumerable causes for the same. When wealth lands in the hands of the minority, there is great room for social evils. However, even distribution of wealth seems to be something next to impossible.

Not many would deny the fact that almost all social evils get generated out of some wants: either it is want of food or shelter or education or employment or wealth. In such a scenario, uneven distribution of wealth is likely to precipitate many social evils because the wealthy are immune to such wants.

For example, let me talk of a society in which a few are filthy rich and the greater majority is either poor or deprived. This divide will ultimately lead to disparities education, healthcare, employment, social statues, to mention a few. The result is unemployment, poor health, divided education and the like. Needless to say, it is all due to the uneven distribution of wealth.

However, in today’s world of opportunities, ensuring even distribution of wealth is rather difficult, to tell the truth. Today, many people are free to move far out and they are able to enjoy better income generating education and employment. This naturally makes them wealthy. For example, IT educated people and management professionals earn hefty pay packages compared to others. They are able to make great differences in their life and, obviously, not all can do this. The outcome is wealth gets distributed unevenly.

In short, uneven wealth is able to encourage many social evils. But the sad fact is that wealth cannot be evenly distributed. Here I tend to add that greater number of people may get wealthy, but wealth as such will always be uneven.
