▶ Your Answer :
Nowadays
people spend less time on transportation. We can go to nearby countries with
shorter time than before. However, within the country, especially big cities like
Seoul and New York are suffering traffic jam. People spend a lot of time in the
road. How can we solve these kinds of problems?
To start the argument, I think the government
should spend more money on improving public transportation. Admittedly, a lot
of people might believe that the government should improve roads and highways.
However, there are already plenty of roads and highways. The ultimate solution
is improving the public transportation, since there are lot of things to be
fixed. For example, in Seoul South Korea, there are more than 10 lines of
subways. However, during the rush hour, it is even hard for people to stand
still inside the subway. There are no personal areas and everyone is standing
side by side. The government tells people to take public transportation to
reduce the traffic jam. However, the condition of using it is extremely
terrible. The government should spend more money to increase the number of trains
so that citizens can use the public transportation more comfortably. Hence, it
is better to improve the public transportation rather than improving the roads.
On top of that, improving the public
transportation is better since it can cover a wide range of people, considering
the age. People can drive after 20 in South Korea and considering the health
problem people older than 60 use the public transportation. People younger than
20 and people older than 60 who have health problems cannot drive. When the
government has to decide between two options which cover different range of
people, I believe it should choose the option which covers a wider range.
Since, it will eventually take care of a wider range of satisfaction. Hence, I
believe the government should spend more money on improving the public
transportation.
In conclusion, I believe government should spend
more money on improving the public transportation for two reasons. There are
more bigger problems related to the public transportation and it takes care of
wider range of people.
