Should retirement age be coupled to life expectancy ?

Statistical Mechanics 2007-05-23 v1 Populations and Evolution

Abstract

Increasing every year the retirement age by the same amount as the increase of the life expectancy gives roughly stable ratios of the number of retired to working-age people in industrialized countries. Continuous influx of immigrants, below one percent per year of the total population, is needed for this stabilization.
