Introduction

Inequality is defined as the imbalance in the economy and also placing the experiencing major hiccups due to the emerging markets.  Inequality can cause the problem of economic development and can lead to stagnant growth and the overall laid back approach. 

Income and extreme poverty reduction

Due to the income inequality and by adopting the redistributive policies and then placing taxes, it would help to bring the condition of the poor up. For example, by investing in the education programs for the poor, they would get good jobs, learn new skills and techniques, and can be more productive by reinvesting in the economy through business or providing services. Income equality can also be balanced with the taxes and social welfare programs. Further, policies like the minimum wages and having no discrimination or racism can balance the groups to work collaboratively.

Inequality, Instability, and Growth

That standard of living can improve through the consistent approach to the economy and even using the approaches step by step, For example, when investing in the resources like labor, we can equate by giving them pay and helping them to educate their families. Further, through jobs, it would create securities and purchases. It would help in investing and the overall growth approaches.

Taxes & redistribution

The taxing the richer can be done with the progressive axes, as the welfare economics, mentions to redistribute the taxing amount that can be used for better practices. Like taxing the richer and proving more pension support, student aid loan programs, and for the infrastructure. Redistribution policies say to even out the rich and the poor wealth. 

Profits attract innovation

When the rick is investing n the economy and creating high-end jobs, they are not only supporting the economy but also creating the stability, jobs, and overall growth. 

The profits help in bringing in innovation, for example, the pharmaceutical industry, who would be focus to invest and expand, leading to better expansion plans.

The more they would be taxed, the less initiative they would be taken, on the contrary, if the government wants to welfare, then they should contribute and fund to the profitable venture, to retain their share.

Conclusion

To conclude, the inequality can cause the problem of economic development and can lead to stagnant growth and the overall laid back approach.
