It proves that the demographic distribution mass makes it possible for wages and pensions to grow simultaneously in an aging and stagnating economy.
In a second step, the development of wages and pensions is simulated for the German case through to the year 2050. It is demonstrated that (under normal circumstances) it can be expected that the burden from aging can almost always be overcompensated by the economic growth of the respective year. Against this background, aging appears to be more a problem of acceptance and income distribution than of real income reductions.... weniger
