A person_s worth nowadays seems to be judged according to social status and material possessions. Old-fashioned values, such as honour, kindness and trust, no longer seem important. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience

It is an irrefutable fact, that values have changed in all over the world. Holding material things, now a days have becoming a symbol of succes. It is disagreed that economical values are most important than moral values. The following up paragraphs will analize explaning

this

situation.

Finally

, my personal opinion will be given in my experince.

First

, money has been trated as a god in modern societies. In example we can see that in American

Society

this

is true. In the American Dollars in the bills are printed “In God we Trust” Doing we

this

, that capital is the main reason to get it.

However

this

is not a truth just to the American nation. Latin American

society

is driving

this

idea as well.

That is

why Narcotraffic is so strong. Mexican drugs dealers are people that have huge quantities of cash. As well as luxury houses, fine cars, expensive jewerly. These people some times do not have any education at all.

Consequently

, they do not have values, and

also

they do not care.

This

is due of the wealth they posses. It seems to allow them to continue acting in

this

way.

On the other hand

, there are people that work every day, that help poor individuals, pay taxes and contribute to

society

_s growth in different areas. Unfortunatelly,

this

values do not produce any wealth.

In addition

, for

society

, material things are today considered a better value than morality.

For example

: When in Mexico an Earthquake is lived, a lot of heroes help people to live. They dig inside the ruins of a house or a building looking for humans that are buried.

Then

, the government just give them an award or some money or even just congratulated them. So,

next

day, people forgive them and that´s it.

To sum up,

society

is forgetting moral values changing them for material values.

This

has to change. I disagree, when

society

consider economical values most important than moral values. Currently, rich people (unless in Mexico) is the only thing that they have: money.

Nevertheless

, Money is power.

In other words

, they have the opportunity to take important desicions. Of course,

this

desicions are always took in the worst way.

This

is unfair
