44、onmentDA serious problem for todays society is who should be responsible for our elderly and how to improve their livesIt is not only a financial problem but also a question of the system we want for our societyI would like to suggest several possible solutions to this problemFirst, employers should

45、 take the responsibility for their retired employeesTo make this possible, a percentage of profits should be set aside for this purposeBut when a company must take life - long responsibility for its employees, it may suffer from a commercial disadvantage due to higher employee costsAnother way of so

46、lving the problem is to return the responsibility to the individualThis means each person must save during his working years to pay for his years of retirementThis docs not seem a very fair model since some people have enough trouble paying for their daily life without trying to earn extra to cover

49、 solution is that the government or social organizations establish some working places especially for the elderly where they are independentTo sum up, all these options （選擇） have advantages and disadvantagesTherefore, it is reasonable to expect that some combination of these options may be needed to
