The people who oppose this program argue that the new building of shopping center will definitely damage our environment as well as bring traffic jam. While compare benefit we get form the new program, the cost seems worth.
I live in a small community which is not well developed. There are so many social problems such as high unemployment, bad road condition, etc. As a result, many people move out of the community which further undermines the local economy. There is no doubt that more people will get jobs once the building is built and a number of people still can work in the shopping center as many positions such as waiters, cleaners, porters, will be provided to local people. As the building is built, the road would be repaired or else no one would like to shop here. We still can image that a lot of restaurants, gas stations will spring up to service the customers attracted by the shopping center and the local people.
However, some problems will be arise and the negative effect can not be neglect. First of all, it may lead heavy traffic jam which will serious disturb the peaceful live here. Environment containment may be another aspect that we have to handle. And the rise of house price may be accelerated. But all of these problems can be work out. With reasonable arrangement, the traffic jam can be limited at least better than now considering wilder and repaired road condition in future. The local government can locate much more money to treat the environments problem. When people can earn more money the rise of house is not a problem.
Overall, the citizen here will live in a convenient life quite different from the life here used to be. Though some problem may be caused, I would like to live in a modern community at such a little cost.
