Aging poses a serious challenge to OECD (Organization of Economic Co-operation and Development) countries, in particular, how to pay for future public pension liabilities. And early retirement places an ___16___ burden on pension financing. There is no easy solution, but ___17___ retirement could help.

Early retirement may seem like a worthy individual goal, but it is a socially ___18___ one, and makes the present public pension system difficult to sustain for long. The ___19___ reason is that more people are retiring early and living longer. That means more retirees depending on the ___20___ of those in work for their income. The ___21___ is worrying.

Surely, the thinking goes, if we are healthier now and jobs are physically less ___34___ and unemployment is down, then perhaps the ___35___ rate should rise anew.
