'People's jealousy, greed, and supremacy' - People always want something more? [5]
[b]Do you agree or disagree with the following statement ? People are never satisfied with what ,they have, they always want something more or something different. Use specific reasons to support your answer
Nowadays, people demand more and more. Their expectations are bigger than ever before. But at the same time human beings tend all the time to feel inner needs to wants other's possessions. Hereby, I can agree with the statement that people always want something that they do not have. There are psychological and social reasons supporting my viewpoint.
First of all I consider that there is too much competition in the contemporary world. Human is never content with what he or she possess. Moreover humans tend to wish objects or status which are in possession of other humans. Researchers claim that jealousy is one of the main feelings which provokes people to feel themselves incomplete in some way. Furthermore it is natural that people envy the others. That is a psychological trend. a simple fact of jealousy can be found even in premature age, among children later the teenagers and adults as well. For instance the children inclination to want what their peers have and to feel unsatisfied of what they have- toys for example.
There is another argument which is related to people's aspirations towards supremacy. Today's individual want to be on the top. Thereby, modern human is never satisfied of what he has achieved and aim at accumulating more and new things- no matter what these things are such as job position, business development, or lifestyle. For example, my uncle had great job in my native town as store manager. Nevertheless, he got promotion and he moved to bigger city with his family. No matter that he has great job and good income now he wants new promotion
Last but not least, human is a greedy and often selfish. Thus he aspire to succeed and gradually he becomes greedy for more. We live in a society which makes us more inclined to demand and expect different things.
In conclusion as far as I am concerned that. People are never satisfied with what they have, if they do not have some objects they can be easily obsessed of the idea to acquire it or they want different things which they have not.The main reasons for my stand are people's jealousy , greed and inclination for supremacy- all of these human's shortcomings are characteristic of the modern society
