(73/100) Understanding Economic Disparity
In the world today, many countries have different amounts of money and resources. Some people are very rich, while others are very poor. This difference is called economic disparity. In some places, like big cities, there are many jobs and good schools. But in small towns or rural areas, there may be few jobs and fewer resources. Recently, the COVID-19 pandemic made economic disparity larger. Many people lost their jobs, and the poorest people suffered more. Governments are trying to help by giving money to families in need and making more jobs. It is important to close the gap between the rich and the poor so that everyone can live a better life.
