Country A is a more developed country with a low birth rate, a low total fertility rate, a high life expectancy, and a high percentage of urban population. Based on this information, which of the following outcomes is most likely to occur in Country A?

a. Guest workers from less developed countries are needed to fill the labor shortages in urban areas.

b. Falling birth rates and declining youth populations result in an increase in school
construction in urban areas.

c. Pressures on pension and social security programs are at critical levels as the number of elderly increases.

d. Provincial and national politicians must tailor their political campaigns to appeal to rural voters

e Suburban house construction declines as elderly populations downsize and seek to be closer to urban amenities.

Respuesta :

I would say c is the correct answer as if there is a low birth rate, when the population ages you are going to have lots of people retiring and not as many people working and paying taxes so pressures on pensions and social security programs will rise. Hope this helps :)
