century.

Although

the increase in senior citizens has its own benefits, a number of individuals contend that

this

phenomenon brings about some detrimental complications. I think both pros and cons should be discussed. By looking at the bright sides of

this

widespread event, we can vividly see that people work more effectively than before,

due to

but not least, the ageing population reside in industrialised zones which is considered a criterion for levelling the well-being of countries, the more an area has an ageing population, the more it is seen as a developed nation. With regard to the disadvantages, it is undeniable that elderly individuals dedicate almost all their heydays to their motherland but the cost of keeping them in nursery homes and the pensions being paid to them monthly is a heavy burden on the governments,

they are not the workforce.

Furthermore

, the existence of people who are too unfit for their daily routine work imposes

thus

Linking Words

, looking up to them can be the least action that we can do in order to appreciate.
