It is true that people in industrialised nations can expect to live longer

than ever before. Although there will undoubtedly be some negative consequences

of this trend, societies can take steps to mitigate these potential

problems.

As people live longer and the populations of developed countries grow older,

several related problems can be anticipated. The main issue is that there will

obviously be more people of retirement age who will be eligible to receive a

pension. The proportion of younger, working adults will be smaller, and

governments will therefore receive less money in taxes in relation to the size

of the population. In other words, an ageing population will mean a greater tax

burden for working adults. Further pressures will include a rise in the demand

for healthcare, and the fact young adults will increasingly have to look after

their elderly relatives.

There are several actions that governments could take to solve the problems

described above. Firstly, a simple solution would be to increase the retirement

age for working adults, perhaps from 65 to 70. Nowadays, people of this age tend

to be healthy enough to continue a productive working life. A second measure

would be for governments to encourage immigration in order to increase the

number of working adults who pay taxes. Finally, money from national budgets

will need to be taken from other areas and spent on vital healthcare,

accommodation and transport facilities for the rising numbers of older

citizens.

In conclusion, various measures can be taken to tackle the problems that are

certain to arise as the populations of countries grow older.
