Opening Arguments
Pro Opening - DivineBayou506
Governments should intervene to reduce income inequality because it helps ensure social stability and fairness. When income inequality is too high, it can lead to increased crime rates and social unrest. By implementing policies like progressive taxation and social welfare programs, governments can help create a more level playing field, giving everyone a fair chance to succeed. Addressing income inequality also boosts economic growth by enabling more people to participate in the economy, thereby increasing overall demand for goods and services.
