Your Answer ▼ It is true that older people group is growing steadily in many countries. The longer life expectancy is the one of the proof the ability of health system. As people are living longer life, it has both positive and negative impacts in our society.
Some countries, especially well developed, normally indicate large number of proportion of older people. Senior people have lots of experiences than young people. Senior people can give them practical life lessons which they have already gone through. Those lessons have positive impact on young people group. According to life lessons, young people might know whether this decision will be the best choices or not as they are living present life. Additionally, a number of researches are subjected to lead by senior proficient professors. They, Of course, remain invaluable research results for the world. Young generation study these results and develop more over a long period of decades.
Although senior people has many useful lessons, they are not always belong to it. Whatever their job was before, old people should retire after the specific age and receive some benefits and pension from the country. the administration has a responsibility to take care of them more carefully than young people. Because they normally need more health care systems and medicines. The government has no choice but to be taxed more from working people to maintain the existing systems for older people such as paying pension, medical and benefits for them. The cost will be higher than now in near future if the number of older people increase faster. The policy only for older people sometimes makes young working people complain to the government. Young people don't get many benefits compared to old people even they pay tax more than old people. The graying is bringing tax burdens not only young generation but the government as well.
Since it has money problems, the government seems to have not found effective solutions that satisfies for both old and young generation . I personally believe the more graying will have the more drawbacks. To solve this gap of two generations, role of government is important to make reasonable policies including comprehensive all generations.
