  4. Chinese Elderly Take a Stand: 80 Million Refuse to Pay Pensions, Prompted by Financial Struggles and Lack of Government Support 😔 Elderly vendors in China continue to work despite their age due to financial constraints and lack of government support. 00:18 The 79-year-old vendor relies on selling vegetables and his pension to make ends meet. 00:18 The elderly man pays his medical bills out of pocket and recently spent thousands of yuan on treatment. 00:32 The aging population in China is rapidly increasing, leading to issues surrounding aged care. 01:19 The one-child policy in China has led to a burden on the middle-aged generation who have to support both sets of parents. 02:00 Many people born in the 80s and 90s are constantly at the hospital accompanying their parents and children. 02:23 💰 China is facing a retirement wave as the post-1960s generation retires, leading to inadequate pension funds and wealth disparities. 02:51 China will face its largest-ever retirement wave in the next decade, with the post-1960s generation retiring at an average rate of 20 million people per year. 02:51 The shrinking employed population and growing elderly population in China lead to inadequate pension funds. 03:23 Around 38 million people in China have suspended their pension insurance, and 43 million have completely withdrawn. 03:38 The situation poses risks to social stability, exacerbates wealth disparities, and reflects public dissatisfaction with government public services and social investments. 04:01 Many people lack optimism about future economic prospects and prefer to focus on their present living conditions. 04:56 📊 The pension system in China has significant disparities between government employees, enterprise workers, and rural residents, with government retirees receiving much higher pensions. 06:17 In Yingtan, the average monthly pension for government employees is 5,080 yuan, while enterprise retirees receive 2,368 yuan, and rural retirees receive only 207 yuan. 06:17 Similar disparities exist in Changchun, where government and public institution pensions are 1.8 times higher than those of enterprise employees and 41 times higher than rural residents. 07:12 The average monthly pension for urban retirees in China is 3,326 yuan, while rural retirees receive only 179 yuan. 07:52 There are approximately 130 million rural elderly people aged over 60 in China, and their pensions are significantly lower than their urban counterparts. 08:05 The CCP's pension system lacks adequate support for the rapidly aging migrant worker population. 09:26 😔 Migrant workers in China face inadequate retirement benefits and lack of pension support, leading to delayed retirement age and hindrance to young labor. 09:35 Rural hukou prevents migrant workers from enjoying better retirement benefits available to urban salaried workers. 09:35 Inadequate social security payments for migrant workers, averaging between 100 yuan and 200 yuan per month. 09:47 China's pension system has a problem of not being able to cover expenditures, with 70% of provinces outliving their pension funds. 10:17 Reduction in medical benefits for the elderly, affecting over 300 million urban residents. 11:01 Protests by retirees demanding the roll back of measures to reduce health benefits in Wuhan, Dalian, and Guangzhou. 12:13 😔 Retired workers in China are protesting against a reduction in their medical insurance benefits, which they argue is a breach of contract and leaves them unable to afford necessary healthcare. 12:52 The medical insurance amount for retired workers in China was cut from 320 renminbi to 160 renminbi, causing widespread dissatisfaction. 12:52 Retirees argue that the reduction in medical insurance benefits is not only illegal but also a breach of contract. 13:31 Many elderly people rely on this small amount of money for healthcare expenses, but the new policy is insufficient to cover even basic needs. 13:49 There is widespread dissatisfaction among the Chinese public due to inadequate medical insurance benefits, and protests are unlikely to settle down easily. 14:33 China's aging population is increasing, with estimates suggesting that by 2035, the elderly population will exceed 400 million, constituting over 30% of the total population. 15:24 📉 China's pension funds may be depleted by 2035, exacerbating the youth unemployment crisis. 16:34 China's pension funds might be depleted by 2035, according to a report. 16:34 China's government is encouraging older workers to re-enter the workforce to bridge the pension gap. 17:21 Promoting employment among the elderly may worsen youth unemployment in China. 17:38 Chinese youth unemployment rate exceeds 21%, much higher than the OECD average. 17:57 As youth unemployment rises and wage-earning individuals decrease, contributions to the pension fund will diminish.
