Some people believe that the care of elderly people should be a priority of government spending. Others believe that government spending should focus more on young people, especially on their education. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

While

should make the

of the elderly generation a priority, others feel that it is the youth and their education that should be prioritised. I believe that both aspects of society deserve an equal amount of attention from

Firstly

,

governments

most definitely need to provide a certain level of

care

for the elderly generation of their

country

. These are the people who spent their lives helping build their

country

and its economy to make it a better place for those who come after them. Without the hard work of those citizens, the

country

would not be where it is today, and

therefore

they should be taken

care

of to a certain extent, including free healthcare and discounted medicine.

However

, families must

also

take

responsibility

for the

care

of the elderly, as the government cannot be fully responsible for every old person. Just as

parents

care

for and nurture their young when they are helpless, adult children must

also

care

for their

parents

and grandparents when they are old, sick, and dying.

On the other hand

, the needs of the younger generation of a

country

are just as important as those of the elderly, as they will be the backbone of a

country

’s economy in the future, and

therefore

the government must invest in their health and education to make sure the

country

continues to develop and prosper in the future with an intelligent and healthy population.

However

, the government cannot be fully responsible for the health and education of young people.

Parents

and communities must

also

take a certain level of

responsibility

to ensure that children are well-educated

in an ethical and positive manner. In conclusion, I believe that

governments

need to focus equally on the younger and older generations,
