At the present time, the population of some countries includes a relatively large number of young adults, compared with the number of older people. Do the advantages of this situation outweigh the disadvantages?
Today, the number of young population who live in certain countries is comparatively higher than that of the elderly. I reckon that the positive aspects of
this
case surpassed the negative points.

To begin
with the plus points, regarding the pension Linking Words

, a country whose membership consists of majorly younger generations can manage social security easily, Use synonyms
this
is because a predominant figure of young people can easily support the aged. Linking Words

, there are several downsides. If adolescents are dominant, society may be more competitive. Linking Words
This
is because youngsters may tend to prefer to dominate other people. Linking Words

dispatched the army to Asian countries was that the youngsters outnumbered the elderly.
In conclusion, I reiterate that the benefits of the situation that the number of young people exceeds that of the older generation overweigh the downsides from the perspective of the maintenance of social security, even if the society became aggressive. I forecast that an ageing society will progressively produce numerous issues in near future.Use synonyms
