Social Securitys future challenges are caused by decreased birth rates and the aging of our population. Do other countries have similar problems?
Yes. Most countries in Europe, as well as Japan, have more serious challenges than the U.S. Even some developing countries are starting to face up to the aging of their populations. See SSA’s monthly publication International Update for recent developments in the public and private pension systems of other countries.
