In the coming decades, people aged 65 and over will make up an increasingly large percentage of the population: The ratio of people aged 65+ to people aged 20-64 will rise by 80%. This shift is happening for two reasons: people are living longer, and many couples are choosing to have fewer children and to have those children somewhat later in life. The resulting demographic shift will present the nation with economic challenges, both to absorb the costs and to leverage the benefits of an aging population. Aging and the Macroeconomy: Long-Term Implications of an Older Population presents the fundamental factors driving the aging of the U.S. population, as well as its societal implications and likely long-term macroeconomic effects in a global context. The report finds that, while population aging does not pose an insurmountable challenge to the nation, it is imperative that sensible policies are implemented soon to allow companies and households to respond. It offers four practical approaches for preparing resources to support the future consumption of households and for adapting to the new economic landscape"-- Publisher's summary. 606 $aAge distribution (Demography)$xEconomic aspects$zUnited States 606 $aPopulation aging$xEconomic aspects$xMathematical models 606 $aOlder people$xEconomic conditions$xForecasting 606 $aOlder people$xGovernment policy$xEconomic aspects 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAge distribution (Demography)$xEconomic aspects 615 0$aPopulation aging$xEconomic aspects$xMathematical models. 615 0$aOlder people$xEconomic conditions$xForecasting. 615 0$aOlder people$xGovernment policy$xEconomic aspects. 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bCommittee on the Long-Run Macroeconomic Effects of the Aging U.S. Population, 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910464780703321 996 $aAging and the macroeconomy$92005252 997 $aUNINA
