What are the problems caused by the aging problem?

Problems brought by the aging problem:

1, the pressure on public funds has increased. The increasing number of elderly people have a growing demand for old-age care, medical care and social services. On the one hand, the elderly don't work but need a pension. On the other hand, their physical fitness is declining, they are prone to illness, and the pressure on medical and health expenditure is increasing.

There is a strong demand for serving the old society. Due to the serious lag in the development of the aged care service industry, it is difficult to meet the service needs of the huge elderly population, especially the rapidly growing "empty nest", the elderly and the sick elderly.

3. The ethical problems of aging are more and more prominent. With the increase of empty nesters and the increase of only children, the traditional way of family support for the elderly is facing challenges, the concept of intergenerational filial piety for the elderly is weakening, and the tradition of family providing the most basic living guarantee for the elderly is weakened.

4. Labor shortage. China is seriously aging. In the next decade, the labor force of young people aged 20-24 will be reduced by 30%. The birth rate has dropped sharply. The aging of China is a serious problem we are facing. China's aging is serious, and the decline of birth rate will bring serious harm. In the next decade, the number of young workers will decrease.

5. The aging population also has a great influence on the adjustment of industrial structure. Due to the decline of intelligence, the old labor force's ability to accept new things declines and its innovation ability is insufficient, which is not conducive to the adjustment of industrial structure.
