在许多国家,寿命的延长导致抚养比率呈上升趋势。这引发了人们对社会保障计划财务可持续性的担忧,改革建议和倡议比比皆是。研究表明,一个基本的政策选择不可避免地出现,因为一个给定的社会保障制度不能通过简单地将养老金年龄与寿命挂钩来维持。政治改革进程是用所谓的立法程序来分析的。当寿命延长时,退休年龄的提高与寿命的延长成比例,但年轻人向老年人转移的比例也更大。
Increasing longevity causes an upward trend in the dependency ratio in many countries. This raises concerns about the financial sustainability of social security schemes, and reform proposals and initiatives abound. It is shown that a fundamental policy choice inevitably arises since a given social security system cannot be maintained by simply indexing pension ages to longevity. The political reform process is analysed using the so-called legislative procedure. When longevity increases, the retirement age is raised more than proportionally to the increase in longevity, but the young also make larger transfers to the old.
