In Britain, when someone gets old they often go to live in a home with other old people where there are nurses to look after them. Sometimes the government has to pay for this care. Who do you think should pay for this care, the government or the family? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

One of the most challenging problems of today’s

society

is the question who should be responsible for our old people. It’s not only a financial

problem

Use synonyms

but

also

a question of the system we want our

society

Use synonyms

to have. In my essay I would like to consider different models.

Firstly

, the company can be responsible for their retired employees. For

this

Linking Words

reason a special fund could be established. The advantage of

this

model

Use synonyms

is, if you believe in the capitalist system, that it should be the cheapest

solution

Use synonyms

. A possible

problem

Use synonyms

is that the companies might have competition disadvantage due to higher staff costs. A

second

solution

Use synonyms

is that the government has to have the responsibility for the old people’s

. It can

with its tax incomes. Actually,

this

is the most democratic

model

Use synonyms

since everybody gets as much money as he or she needs. Unfortunately, as the present situation in our

society

shows,

this

solution

Use synonyms

seems not to work very well. The government can no longer afford

to support

all the old peoples. Another way of solving

this

Linking Words

problem

Use synonyms

is to give

such

Linking Words

the responsibility to the individual that means that everybody has to save money during their working life for the time after their retirement.

This

Linking Words

seems to be not a very fair

model

Use synonyms

because there will certainly exist people who can’t afford to save part of their salary. In

this

Linking Words

case the government would have to save for them. A

Linking Words

last

Suggestion

lasting

solution

Use synonyms

is to go back to the old

model

Use synonyms

of “the big family” who cares for all their members. I don’t think

this

Linking Words

is possible in our day’s

society

Use synonyms

because the family structures have so much changed. To sum up, I have to admit that I can’t find a

solution

for

problem

all models have advantages and disadvantages. Certainly we have to think about

topic much more in the future.
