Comments by "" (@lonevoice) on "Why is it the elderly are living as long as ever, but are sicker?" video.
I don't have an answer but I do recognise that we have an aging population in the future a reduced younger generation will have a huge burden of looking after an increased retired population. If it is avoidable, what are the solutions? Will we rely on more automation and robotics to help? If not then there is a problem. Then there only seem to be three options: 1. Care and support to the elderly will diminish so that they don't live as long, 2. we encourage young families to start a family but when ownership and stability of a home is a mirage and job security is poor, it is hardly conducive to that, or 3. we rely on immigration but the public are against that. What's going to give?
