With an informed electorate, voting system can cater to young and old

Some good local egs for the qn below....more importantly is the point that by helping the old, we are indirectly helping the young:

"However, while initiatives like the Silver Support Scheme and the Pioneer Generation Package (PGP) recognise the contributions of the early generation of Singaporeans to our country's success, these also alleviate the pressure on the middle-aged "sandwich generation" that has to raise kids and care for elderly parents."

For comparison qn of the type below, when disagreeing with the comparison claim, consider whether we can say that A and B are related, so we cant say one is more important than the other. In this case, helping the old is actually indirectly helping the young, as the young would not have to fork out so much or be taxed so much to support the old if the govt spends on the old....

Qn: When a government’s finances for social welfare are limited, should they be directed towards the young or the old? (Cam. 2015)
