Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
Inequality
'significantly' curbs economic growth – OECD
Is it just income
inequality? According to research by the organization of the developed
countries reports the gap between the rich and poor has been widening for the
last two decades. It also suggests that the income gap has been affecting
economic growth.
Then what is
causing such unfair distribution of wealth and what could be effective countermeasures
to the problem? Education. A lack of investment in education seems to have been
the key factor behind this rise in inequality. The fewer educational opportunities
are, the lower job qualifications or social mobility is. It seems the earlier
the better to start investing on education.
Enjoy reading and
learning about this rising trend of income inequality.
