In Britain,
when someone gets old they often go to live in a home with other old people
where there are nurses to look after them. Sometimes the government has to pay
for this care. Who should be responsible for our old people? Give reasons for your
answer.
Never
before in history has the issue of aging of population been more evident than
now, which has become a burden for government. Consequently, there is a hot
debate on who should pay for our old people. Personally, both young people and
government should take the responsibility for them.
Needless
to say, we have been brought up by our parents. It is a deplorable manner for
us to take it for granted that they devote all they have in order to provide us
with a better future, though they do not expect any reward for their sacrifice.
Besides, sending old people to the care centre maybe is not our best choice,
because people feel isolated when they get old, and this, which requires the
care of their children, cannot be solved by the care center.
As
well as government should not neglect the contributions they made to our
society when they were young, and, as one of their rewards, a proper proportion
of taxation should be paid for the care system. Although they were paid for
their works, the contributions far outweigh their payment.
In
conclusion, both young people and government should commemorate the
contribution they made to us, and view it as our responsibility rather than
burden to pay for this care, not only resting on the happiness old people
provide us, but also making our own contributions to them.
