Answer:

A, a challenge for Medicare and Social Security

Explanation:

An aging population is a problem many developed countries face today. It occurs because of the demographic situation today: low or negative birth rates.

An aging population means that there are more retired than working people. The retired people don't pay taxes and many rely on governmental medical and social programs such as Medicare and Social Security. These programs have to be financed from public funds and the absence of taxes means there may be not enough money to cover for the expenses in the future.

What was the effect of bank runs & bankruptcy after the Stock Market Crash of 1929?
erastova [34]

Answer:

People sold off bank stocks, making them worthless.

Explanation:

The Stock Market Crash of 1929 caused a series of bank runs which destroyed the people's trust in the banking system. It began as a rumor that the banks were unable to pay cash which then transcended to panic among customers causing them to withdraw their funds en masse. They also spent little thus causing a stagnant economy. People withdrew their cash from the banks thus causing the solvency of many banks.

Banks in turn liquidated their loans and sold their assets at very low costs.
