Because the United States' population is aging, this means that costs are rising for programs that assist senior citizens. Because funding is the major challenge that must be solved, I would consider changing the retirement age. As citizens live longer lives, they may be able to have longer careers. However, this would be a difficult solution.
The two major Welfare programs are Medicare and Social Security. These two welfare programs are facing serious issues, the first one is the "legitimacy" which refer to questions "who will benefit and how they will be served". The second issue is "the cost" which refer to questions "Who will pay and how much".
