The care of old people is a growing problem. Some say the government should care for old people. Others say that it is the family’s responsibility. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

Nowadays, due to the developed science the life expectancy has risen dramatically.

Consequently

, the question of who should take care of the elderly is a thorny issue. Some people hold the opinion that authorities are responsible for them. Others,

on the contrary

, maintain that only relatives should look after the senior members of the family.

This

essay examines

this

question from both points of view and

then

I will give my own perspective on the matter. The main reason why the majority of the community take the view that

administration

Suggestion

the administration

of the country should patronize people in ages is that citizens pay more than 10% of their wages to the

pension

budget.

For example

, in Canada employers deposit money for the future

pension

for their employees so retired workers are supported from both the state and the employer.

As a result

, retirees have enough money for living, include travelling and medicine. In

this

case the

pension

system works as a knock-on-effect caring about labours in advance.

On the other hand

, still a huge part of society

argue

argues

that relatives should keep an eye on the aged family members. The main argument used that only close person can understand

the needs

of

the retiree

and caring about him with love.

For instance

, in Russia it is a tradition that seniors after retire come to live

their adult children.

Therefore

government

the government

small pensions for elderly, but during their life Russians

less than 6% to the

system. In conclusion, the question of caring the aged people is a difficult one to answer definitively.

However

, based on the reasons analysed above, I believe that government should take care of

elderly

Suggestion

the elderly

because during their adult life they paid more than 10% of their salary for future

pension

and in

this

case it is quite obvious to take

this

money back after retire for medical issues or for

not the same one or ones already mentioned or implied

other

needs.
