[Utilization of Silver Labor][Type the document subtitle]Labor Economics Term PaperHuman productivity accelerates industrial development and ultimately results in substantial social changes, such as improvement of hygiene, higher standards of living, and dramatic progress in medical science. These changes directly or indirectly led to an extension of the human life span. The resulting increase of senior citizens in the total population is becoming a critical issue in many countries. Modern society is changing quickly and the graying of the population is one of the fastest changing aspects of the modern workplace. This fact cannot be disregarded by corporations, governments, and other workplace policy stakeholders. In general, a society is called an ‘ageing society’ if at least 7% are senior citizens of total populations and an ‘aged society’ is one in which there are at least 15% senior citizens. A society that includes 20% of senior citizens out of total populations is called a ‘post-ease of aged workers. Therefore, graying ultimately reduces the productivity of overall economies. According to research of International Trade Statistics, in 2000, the rate of productive population out of total population was 71.1%. It will be expected that it will be decreased by approximately 55%. This fact means that the burden per person, who is a productive worker and pays all kinds of taxes will rise to support senior citizens. In 2000, ten citizens supported one senior citizen; but by 2025, four people will have to support each senior citizen; just two people will support one senior citizen by 2050. The rate of 50-62 years old people who represent as senior citizen in total productive population was 18.4%, but it will dramatically increase to 36.6% by 2050. This decrease of the productive population means that overall labor supplies in the U.S. economy will be seriously decreased without any dramatic increase of employment and extra labor force. Even if there are optimistic ecoal period in order to lead to smooth growth. Therefore, the government needs to offer proper financial incentives to those industries as well as some sorts of employees’ benefits programs. The government is also able to offer subsidies to employees who are engaged in those industries, and it could also expand the government budget for childcare and leisure facilities for workers in those industries as an added incentives.The second solution could be Institutional aid to activate silver industries: government would be required to implement institutional aid to silver industries in order to meet rising needs of senior citizens. These government activities would lead not only to elevation of standard of living for senior citizens, but also to stimulating economic growth. While demands for medical service, asset management, and financial service, leisure, and travel plans are rapidly increasing, supplies of those services do not keep up with and meet those needs. The U.S. government is ablwho value what they have to offer. It provides job opportunities to senior citizens by building partnerships with various firms and it tries to raise their funds through donations and sponsorship. They spend these donations to help senior citizens by building shelters, providing financial aid, and offering medical services for senior citizens.England is the one of the advanced countries in terms of attempting various efforts to solve the graying problem. In the late 90s, England recognized that there is no other way to overcome the graying problem without finding ways to utilize senior labor. Thus, England started a nationwide campaign in order to change a widespread viewpoint in which employees should leave their jobs when they became older. The main motto of this campaign is “Ageism, That’s so Yesterday!” The campaign primarily included to remove the age limit on labor-wanted advertisements, to place value more on employees’ abilities than their age when make decision for promotion. lans don’t meet their needs. The uniqueness of Japanese firms are that the firms, themselves, are so active to expand the age limits. According to research from the ministry of health, 98% of major firms (from the twelve thousands firms in total) are willing to expand the age limits. This is because government efforts to change perspectives of senior labors and various aids to reduce companies’ burdens by hiring senior employees are working. Japan is further along in solving the problem because they have been working of it longer.There are actual systems to show how companies tried to utilize senior labor efficient ways. First, Toyota’s Skilled Partner program to rehire employees. The maximum retirement age is 65 years old, and these employees allow to go to the company twice or three times a week. Second, Nice Step Up: this is the system implemented by Matsushita Electronics. When employees became 60 years old, they retired at first, and then they were rehired in ABM (Arrow Business MT 1

“Depraved American Dream in the Great Gatsby”American dream and historical meaning‘American dream’ in the American literature has been existing with its history. American dream in terms of literature viewpoint is defined that America is some sort of paradise so called ‘New Eden’ that is the ideal world before Adam and Eve became depraved so America was regarded as the nation of opportunities that everyone can achieve their goals if they do their effort and new world that freedom and equality are actualized. These belief and hope for opportunities were became the foundation of early American dream and they had some kinds of belief about ‘bright future’. However, middle of the 19th, because of radial industrialization and confrontation of north and south the image of “nation of freedom” was degenerated. Dramatic development with radial industrialization always accompany with serious social problems, these problems are gradually degenerated the pure meaning of “American dream.”The meaningents that early pioneer’s hopes and desires for their future with freedom. Gatsby’s dream symbol green light was described as image of light that was almost catchable, but it actually never caught after all like new world reflected to ‘Dutch Sailors’.The meaning of American dream in the Great GatsbyThe social atmosphere that wealth was the most significant value for success was described in the Great Gatsby even more sophisticallyThe main character Gatsby was from the mid-west area and he was an idealist who was imaginative and native as well as vulgarity and wicked. This Gatsby’s personality represents how American’s idealistic temperament and will to material succeed are collided each other.‘American dream’ means American’s hopes and is expectation to accomplish their desires. American hope is “all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness” as Thomas Jefferson expressly, however, American dream which tried to combine ‘spiritual’ and ‘material’ success was failed because they succeeded in material success too fast without any fulfillment of spiritual success. As are result, America turns to the nation which has material abundance, but absence of spiritual goals and lives. Fitzgerald tried to describe American which still has original American dream through Gatsby and he also dramatized all kinds of problems in Jazz age such as collapse of typical American self-made-man, chronic social ills under the industrial revolution, tendency that material controls spirit and ugly individualism that just wants to stay the momentary enjoyment.The factor that make the Great Gatsby as a literally great novel is apparently it just narratives a single person’s life, but it also has hidden themes which is complex and profound. First of all, the writer Fitzgerald sharply pointed out the two factors that form American culture: collision and harmony of idealism and matenged toward west to east after frontier period ended. Young people in west regard west some kind of outskirt and admire eastern metropolis which stands for wealth, richness, prosperity and enjoyment. New world of ‘New American dream’: in order to achieve new type of American dream, all people tried to move back to east where their ancestors move out to succeed previously. New age people regard east as somewhere new world that has to be pioneered and then they rushed to east again. The main characters of Gatsby: Nick Caraway, J Gatsby, Daisy, Tom Buchanan, and Jordan Baker were all from mid-west. Unfortunately, mid-west people as a people just mentioned above, however, didn’t accomplish succeed lives after all. Their American dream just disfigured to ruined and depraved shape and they were all just floating on modern American society without any moral standards and faith. Fitzgerald himself really missed pure shape of American dream at the beginning of American history. It was shown at d once pandered in whispers to the last and greatest of all human dreams; for a transitory enchanted moment man must have held his breath in the presence of this continent, compelled into an aesthetic contemplation he neither understood nor desired, face to face for the last time in history with something commensurate to his capacity for wonder.Dutch sailors’ American dream was sincerely pure and it was naturally come from respect of new world so there were no commercial intentions and purposes. It was the most innocent form American dream. American dream, however, that was presented by Gatsby was just existed as a form of deteriorated and degraded dream. Gatsby was the person who was too romantic idealist and lived within American dream created by him. He believed that he was able to get back his lost love by money. Nevertheless he actually did all kinds of illegal methods and ways to be able to attain material success, he believed himself that his dreams finally had come true and thiT 1

And ving you a conclusion that people should exercise regularly for their life.BodyOkay, Let’s start with first part.What kinds of problems are going to be generated if we don’t do exercise by the way. When we discuss about exercise we’re not able to separate exercise without mentioning about obesity. The worst story that people don’t do exercise. They can hardly escape from obesity problem.If I briefly explain about obesity, obesity can cause heart disease, diabetes, higher cholesterol and basis of lot of illness. People usually don’t know what they are eating and how much calories their food contain. Even though somebody is able to count exact calories in every meal, how does he/she possibly control and loss those amount of calories without exercise? According to Researchers at Bristol University, just 15 minutes of exercise per day can make a big difference in people chances for becoming obese.
