Predictions are that in 2050. The age for retirement in the developed world will come closer to the beginning of the eighth decade of life.
Developed world is faced with an aging population and all "thin" national cash register said for many governments to seek out the extension of working life. The Americans are approaching the limit of 67 years, the British 68 .. "70 or bankrupt! "- says the British weekly" The Economist ".
Notice of extension of working life has provoked outbursts of anger on the streets of Paris to Madrid, so that the "reforms" slowed down. But they did not stop there. Predictions are that it will be 2050. The age for retirement in the developed world closer to the beginning of the eighth decade of life. In Europe, estimates "The Economist", in year 2040. The retirement will not be before the age of 70. Americans, who are somewhat younger population, will enjoy more "Luft".
Longer life, with early retirement, would not be an issue that has enough young workers. Thus, reduced natural population growth in the developed world suggests that the in 2050-ies in America, 2.6 workers will support one pensioner, while in France 1.9, Germany 1.6 and Italy 1.5 ...
Where is the exit?
Proponents of a longer lifetime show the advantages - that employees will get more wages, the government to collect more taxes, while spending less for benefits, and the economy will grow faster, because people earn more. Nice sounds, at first glance. For many others, the announcement of a longer working life means more worry than joy.
Already, workers in the mature years struggling with the pain by finding a job, while still young, at the beginning of his career, complaining that they can not begin to work, because the older are not going to retire. In addition, the traditional method of payment for older workers is unresolved, and raising the limit for retirement may bring new headaches for workers and employers. In The best hand, raising the age limit for retirement, analysts have noted, may represent only part of the solution, especially in a system where many, however, decide to stop working before the prescribed age limit.
The problem here returns to the beginning, with crystallized financial troubles, and few good solutions. The problem of pensions of employees in the public sector can best be illustrated by the situation in the U.S. states, where the deficit in pension funds rises to 3,000 billion dollars. In the private sector, on the other hand, is evident in the confrontation with the market instability that undermines all the plans in connection with pension funds. Here to the workers,is simply put, there is danger to their money set aside for "peaceful old age" is "too short" to cover - the length of life. |
