    1 Psychological loneliness in the elderly.

    2 The social responsibility of young adults increases, and the pressure increases.

    3 Insufficient national defense capabilities.

    4 Increased burden on the state (fiscal bias towards social security; the consumption of pension insurance; the cost of improving the social security system, etc.).

    What else???

    I can't think of it. Add one more far-fetched.

    5 Too many elderly people and less social vitality!?

    1. Aging population.

    The huge pressure is testing the ability to plan for the elderly. According to statistics, by the end of 2008, there were 37,623 welfare institutions for the elderly in China, with 2.45 million beds for the elderly, accounting for only the elderly population over 60 years old, which is not only lower than that of developed countries.

    5%-7%, and it is also lower than that of some developing countries.

    of 2% — 3% level.

    2. Due to the low overall quality of the pension service team and the lag of the professional construction of employees, China's existing pension service team is far from being able to meet the objective needs of the development of the pension industry.

    In 2009, the disability and semi-disability of the elderly in China's urban areas reached more than 20% in rural areas, and this part of the elderly needs professional care and care, according to the ratio of the elderly to caregivers 3:1, the country needs at least 10 million elderly care workers.

    The aging rate is too fast, and the pressure on social pension is increasing

    According to the 2002 sample survey, the coefficient of the working-age population bearing the elderly population has increased by one percentage point compared with 1982. With the improvement of living standards, the traditional multi-generational living together has gradually disintegrated, and the separation of the old and the young, and the miniaturization of families have become an inevitable trend.

    Due to pension insurance premiums.

    After the Cultural Revolution, it was not set aside according to the regulations, and the withdrawal and accumulation of pension insurance funds were interrupted, and the compensation of the implied liabilities of pension insurance was not solved, and the gap was as high as about 5 trillion yuan, according to the estimation of relevant experts; The phenomenon of non-payment of insurance premiums by some enterprises with poor efficiency is very common, with a cumulative arrears of 150 billion yuan, resulting in social security.

    Insufficient, personal accounts empty account operation, causing great difficulties to pension insurance.

    The social problems brought about by the aging of the population are:

    1. Labor.

    According to the current rate of aging, combined with the declining birth rate in our country, the size of our young labor force aged 20-24 will be reduced by 30% in the next ten years, which is a huge number. Then there will be two problems, one is that there is no one to do the work, and the other is that there is work that the elderly need to do, which will lead to the need to work even after retirement. Because, there are not so many young people in the country anymore.

    2. Medical treatment. According to the statistics of the Ministry of Health, the prevalence of chronic diseases, the disability rate and the consumption of health resources among the elderly over 60 years old are times and times that of the national population, respectively. Medical and health resources are still a limited resource, the elderly because of the decline in physical function, the probability of problems must be higher than that of young people, the aging is serious, then it will inevitably occupy more medical resources, this pressure is huge.

    3. The total expenditure of basic pension insurance.

    In fact, as I just said, the increase in the aging population will correspondingly increase the proportion of sick, disabled and mentally retarded elderly people, so it is normal that the burden of medical insurance will also increase.

    Of course, the aging of the population will also promote the development of related industries, such as clothing, food, housing and transportation services around the elderly, professional pension services, etc., the most obvious is that China's current pension institutions and professional pension personnel are obviously insufficient, which contains a huge demand market.

    The main characteristics of the aging population of the Chinese:

    First, the aging of the population has reached its peak ahead of schedule. In the late 20th century, in order to control the rapid growth of the population, the state implemented the family planning policy, which caused the birth rate to decline rapidly and accelerated the aging process of the Chinese population. Since the population pressure in the first half of the 21st century is still heavy, and the national policy of family planning must continue to be adhered to, the result will inevitably be that China will reach the peak of population aging early.

    Second, the population is aging in a less developed socio-economic state. Some developed countries that have entered the aging society in the early stage have a per capita GDP of more than 20,000 US dollars, showing that "the rich first and then the old", which has laid an economic foundation for solving the problems brought about by the aging of the population.

    When China enters an aging society, the per capita GDP is about 3,000 US dollars, showing that "old before getting rich", because the economic strength is not strong, undoubtedly increasing the difficulty of solving the problem of aging.

    Third, we need to overcome the aging of the population under multiple pressures. In the first half of the 21 st century, in the process of establishing and perfecting the socialist market economic system, China had arduous tasks of reform and development, and the economy and society had to be sustainably developed and the society had to maintain stability.

    Population ageingThe impact will include a reduced workforceBasic pension insuranceThe increase in total expenditure, medical problems, the development of social and cultural welfare and the aging of the population, the weakening of the family pension function, etc.

    1. Reduce the labor force.

    China's population is aging. Over the next decade, the size of the 20-24-year-old youth labor force will be reduced by 30%. The decline in the birth rate is severe.

    China's aging population is a serious problem we are facing. China's aging population is serious, and the decline in the birth rate will bring serious harm. The number of young workers will decrease over the next decade.

    2. The total expenditure of basic pension insurance has increased.

    The aging of the population is likely to increase the proportion of sick, disabled, and mentally retarded elderly people in the future. It will not only increase the number of businesses and ** in basic medical insurance.

    and various supplementary pension incomes.

    3. Medical problems.

    Older people are important consumers of health resources. Health.

    Statistics have shown that the prevalence of chronic diseases among the elderly over 60 years old is twice that of the national population, the disability rate is twice that of the national population, and the health resources consumed by the elderly are twice that of the national population.

    Compared with economic development, the development of China's medical and health undertakings is relatively backward. The problem of difficulty in seeing a doctor and seeing a doctor for the elderly is particularly prominent.

    Cope. On October 18, 2017, the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China.

    pointed out that the implementation of the Healthy China strategy.

    Actively respond to the aging of the population, build a policy system and social environment for the elderly, filial piety and respect for the elderly, and promote the integration of medical care and elderly care.

    Accelerate the development of the cause of the elderly and the industry.

    In November 2019, the Communist Party of China issued the "National Medium and Long-term Plan for Actively Responding to Population Aging". The "Plan" is a strategic, comprehensive and guiding document for China to actively respond to the aging of the population by the middle of the 21st century, with a medium-term to 2035 and a long-term outlook to 2050.

    In November 2021, the "Opinions of the Communist Party of China on Strengthening the Work on Aging in the New Era" was released. The "Opinions" proposes that by the end of 2025, each county (city, district, banner) will have one county-level support service institution for the extremely poor with the function of combining medical care and elderly care.

    First, the labor force is decreasing, and low-end industries are facing the problem of transformation and upgrading

    An ageing population means fewer people working in society and fewer people in the market. Nowadays, most young people with low education are reluctant to work in factories, and many men are willing to work as couriers, deliver takeaways, and drive online car-hailing. Women are willing to work as restaurant waitresses, KTV waitresses, etc.

    Second, enterprise competition has intensified, and involution has become the norm

    In the past two years, with the reduction of the demographic dividend, the growth rate of Internet companies has slowed down, and the previous era of rapid growth is gone.

    In order for enterprises to continue to develop and maintain market competitiveness, employees also have to endure long-term overtime. If you don't work overtime, your performance will not meet the standard, and you will face the danger of being eliminated from the last position of the company. Therefore, in order to develop and increase competitiveness, employees in order to get a good salary, the two sides form a consensus to increase the working hours.

    Third, the problem of old-age care, the problem of difficult and expensive medical treatment

    With the increase of the elderly population and the intensification of aging, the problem of old-age care will become extremely severe in the future.

    The intensification of the aging of the population is likely to make the proportion of sick, disabled and dementia in the elderly population rise sharply in the future, which will not only increase the economic burden of enterprises and enterprises in basic medical insurance, but also increase the expenditure of the elderly in medical care and care, thus requiring more personal basic pension and various supplementary pension income.

    The flip side of population aging is that the younger generation is getting older at marriage and childbearing. On the one hand, this is due to the increase in educational attainment. Nowadays, most people have to undergo more than three years of re-education after receiving compulsory education.

    The proportion of the population enrolled in universities (including junior colleges) is increasing. On the other hand, it is also caused by the increasing requirements of the married population for marriage and childbearing conditions. Having a house, a car and a deposit is a prerequisite for many people to get married.

    In addition, the aging society has led to increased work pressure and extended working hours for the marriage and childbearing population, which will also affect the postponement of the actual marriage and childbearing time.

    With the continuous opening up of our country, the second-child policy and the third-child policy should actually alleviate the aging trend in a few decades or so. However, under the current conditions, it is indeed difficult to alleviate aging, so the delayed retirement in social security can change some of the ways we deal with aging. For example, if the retirement is delayed, assuming that after the arrival, then he can directly transform the retired elderly population into the working-age labor force, thereby reducing the total number of retired elderly population and increasing the total number of working-age labor-age population.

    So these initiatives are all ways to change the aging population. In fact, one of the more important points of aging is that with the continuous improvement of living conditions, the per capita life expectancy level is also constantly improving.

    Too much aging means that there are many older people. This is the inevitable result of the development of the laws of nature, and it is an unavoidable fact. Don't think that when you get older, you will become a burden to your family and society, they can still shine within their ability.

    For example, after retirement, continue to save the original job to work. There are also children and grandchildren at home, so that they can work without worries. Some are willing to work as cleaners, and volunteers do what they can, providing a convenient, safe and clean social environment for the public, which is obvious to all.

    First of all, it will definitely lead to economic problems. After all, in the aging era, there will be a lot less labor force, and the burden on society will increase a lot. Even society will be overloaded.

    It will lead to a decrease in the birth rate of the population, the loss of a certain labor force, and for some low-end industries, it will face a series of transformation problems, which will also make insufficient consumption, reduce the growth rate of the economy, affect the corresponding employment, and cause the problem of difficulty in seeing a doctor.
