income inequality renders negative health consequences to all members of a society because in societies marked by income inequality, people involve themselves less in social and voluntary activities outside of the home. Moreover, the relationship between people's income and health levels intensifies among children of low social economic status, thereby worsening as these children age because the children receive more shocks to their health in forms such as chronic conditions and diseases requiring hospitalization; which then negatively affects their health as adults.
