the mose effective way for tje government to conserve energy is to incresing the price of gasoline and elcectircity.
As society is developed, the mount of energy people spend everyday skyrocketed and government are struggling to conserve energy. Some people argue that heighten price of energy is the best way to achive the goal because they believe that it is visually the easiset way. However, In my point of view, increasing price of energy is not an effective measure of energy preserving.
To begin with, increasing gas fee make ordinary people to live their life more harder. Modern people use energy to work, and to live. For them, energy is part of their life. If government make price of energy more expensive, increased gas fee will become a heavy burden to people. In a ling term perspective, it can have critical effects on economy. For example, last year, price of gassline abnomally increased and people were suffered from the problem. Since numorus small company could not afford to the raised gassoline and electrricity, many of them collapsed and therefore many people lose their job. Eventually, whole economy of our country was suffered just because of increased price of energy. The example shows side effect of raising energy price. Although it might conserve energy, it finally cause unpredictable trouble.
On top of that, gap between the poor and the rich will be increased. In fact, people affected to the raised energy price are those who do not have a lot of property. The rich will hardly not affected by the increased energy price because energy price is, actually not burdensome at all if it will be raised a lot. However, normal people, will be greatly affected by that since gas fee is a big part of their output. To illustrate, my parents earn about ten thousand dollars annually and spend about twenty percents of their income are spent for energy. My parents always say that energy price is too burdensome and try to save. On the other hand, while rich people earn millions dollars, only few percents of their income is spent for energy. For them, If gas price increased ten times, they will be able to pay for that without any constraint.
Finally, I strongly disagree with the suggestion that raising price of gassoline and electricity is an effective way of energy-conserving. It not only harm community, but also extand gap between social classes.
