From my point of view I strictly say that technology is much helpful when used in a right way, &twice harmful when uses in bad way i.e. it is similar to a knife which can be used as a tool to cut fruit for good, used to cut neck on bad behalf. What I want to say is technology can be used to make money easily but the way using should not be harmful to anyone.

Hello friends, as we are knowing that technology is something that can create new world with having less problems. Now a days in organizations it uses technology to be in a good position. So in my opinion technology didn't create any disparate in a new era of world peace. One of my friend said that its absolutely correct. It is technology used by every one in rural as well as urban side. But the way we are use the technology is in our hands but not others so make use of it in a proper way and then transferred to others.

Good morning everyone. Our topic is whether technology creates income disparities or not?in my point of view technology is not creating any income disparities because in present scenario we can not lead our life without technology. It has been growing day by day on for sake of people. To make our works more efficient they are struggling to improve more technology with less cost.

As our friends said only urban people are aware of technology, and some rural areas are not beneficial with the technology. Its not true because the technologies developed are almost going through every part of societies.

I would like to tell one example that in olden days where technology was not there people in rural areas used rikhshaw and now we can not see a single rikhshaw in our country. That means technology is being used by everyone. Ofcourse only some areas who are illiterate are not aware of technology.

I would like to conclude that its not technology creating income disparities, its literacy of the people. So if we increase standard of education and educate each and every one in our society technology can be efficiently used. It leads to development of the country.

According my view of thinking the development of technology in these is peak touching. Day by day the technology go on development by this one it save the valuable time of the human being but if everything make easy and everything come in the mouth of the human being it makes that human beings as lazy one's. With out technology some works or not done. The having of technology is good one but people who are using the technology make use it properly and gave it further generation.

So my opinion is the way the man using or developing the technology is in our hands. Every man's future is in hands not in other hand. So before using or developing the technology think once and carry on it. Be perfective any thing.

Technology has revolutionized our lives we can't imagine our lives with it but the fact that it has its own disadvantages the one familiar with it has the upper hand and vice versa thus it creates economic disparities.

Friends,

Technology has indeed turned boulders in the field of development, comfort and efficacy. But the superficiality of technology can be clearly made out i.e. the technology has spread its wings only over the urban areas. Half the teeming population is deprived of the use of technology.

The reason that backs this fact is that of illiteracy. To expunge this fastidious problem, we ought to look at the feasible methods at hand like making the latest technologies in rural areas, helping them understand their uses by conducting workshops. These attempts could prove felicitous only when implemented strenuously. This way we can make India Income disparity free country.

Thanks for providing me with a opportunity for sharing my views.

The term technology is familiar to all the classes, higher, middle, and the lower class. Technology is the means of communication between the classes for example in large organisations equipments like telephone, mobile phone, fax, video conferencing devices are being used by the employers and the employees in order to communicate with each other these equipments are used in day to day activities. These means helps in reducing income disparities between higher level and the lower level, and also helps both the classes to earn good sum of income because of quick problem solving due to good communication between both the classes.

Technology as we know has become a part of our life. We cannot just live on without it. But it is like a coin with same sides but both having a different result.

One side is that, it does create income disparities among the working class. It only creates opportunities for those who are familiar with it. But this itself can sometimes be a danger, that is not all the firms stay at the top of business list for long. Some or the other day they will come down, which will force the employer to minimize the wages or remove some of the workers.

Second, if there wasn't any technology then more number of people would have been at job which is a good point. But the production would not be up to the mark, which might cause workers getting less wages.

So its clear that technology do creates income disparity which might make us think that we don't need any technology, but absence of it is also gives the same result.

Its like a Quadratic equation with two roots but the same answer.

Thank you.

As the definition of technology goes, "technology is the knowledge of tools, machines, techniques, systems or methods of organisation to SOLVE A PROBLEM effectively and efficiently. Yes, I said "to solve a problem", So can it create income disparities?

I think all of you readers got my point.

I personally do not feel that technology is creating any kind of disparities in the country. With the advancement of technology, it has reached to the various parts of the society. Even a rickshaw vala is is using a mobile phone as the higher classes do. Meaning to say is that technology has decreased the disparities of the countries economy.
