I have tried another complicated translation into Spanish. Here is my attempt:

Los gran/buen avances médicos que están prolongando la vida un pésimo caída de (la tasa de) natalidad están causando/causa {Gerund or present here?] el anciano dramática/drástico de la población en las naciones ricos. Para el estado del bienestar social, estas tendencias demográficas representa una pena de muerta virtual. Europa Occidental afronta problema particular, y especialmente España.

España tiene la tasa de natalidad mas bajo en el mundo. Varios factores culturales y económicos pueda explicar la caída de la tasa de natalidad. Como las mujeres ha entrada el mano de obra en un numero mas grande durante los últimos 25 anos, se ha retrasado la edad promedio que casarse y por lo tanto, la edad que se tiene los niños. Económicamente, lo factor mas importante es la falta de las oportunidades para los jóvenes. Con la tasa de desempleo entre los jóvenes al 35%, muchos simplemente posponen fundar una familia. En tanto y en cuanto el plan de pensiones publico (el centro del estado del bienestar) continua/es presente en España, la situación para los jóvenes no seré mejorar/mejorar apenas.

Como la popularidad de los ancianos aumenta en España, la razón de trabadores activo a trabadores jubilado/retirado disminuye, que significa que los trabadores de España seré pagar impuestos mas superior que se paga ahora para] financiar el plan de pensiones publico. Aunque temen que los políticos repercusiones de desmantelando uno estado del bienestar que esta derrumbando debajo de su propio peso. Las oficiales españoles no ha intentado seriamente impedir el crisis que viene. Las reformas cosméticas que se ha adoptado, mantiene las estructuras básicas para el plan de pensiones publico.

English version:

Great medical advances that are lengthening life spans and an abysmal fall in birth rates are causing a dramatic ageing of the populations in rich nations. For the welfare state, these demographic trends represent a virtual death sentence. Western Europe faces particular trouble, and Spain especially so.

Spain has the lowest birth rate in the world. […] Several cultural and economic factors may explain the fall in birth rates. As women have entered the labour force in greater numbers over the past 25 years, they have delayed the average age at which they marry and, consequently, the age at which they start having children. […] Economically, the most important factor is the lack of opportunities for young people. […] With the unemployment rate among young people at 35 percent, many simply postpone starting a family. As long as the public pension system -- the heart of the welfare state -- continues in Spain, the situation for young people will hardly improve.

[…] As the elderly population in Spain increases, the ratio of active workers to retired workers decreases, which means that Spanish workers will have to pay even higher taxes than they do now to finance the public pension system. […] Even though they fear the political repercussions of dismantling a welfare state that is collapsing under its own weight, Spanish officials have not seriously tried to prevent the coming crisis. The cosmetic reforms they have adopted maintain the basic structure of the public pension system.

Please correct any mistakes. There are a dew parts in bold, please tell me which word fits best. Thank you :D

Maybe you could send shorter questions? Bit by bit? It is a lot to ask in one go, not many of us have time to sit down and look at really long bits of work.. - annierats, Feb 24, 2012
estoy de acuerdo. Demasiado largo esta escrito. - Xocoyote, Feb 24, 2012
Looks like a copied/pasted machine translation to me. Too many mistakes. - 00d312f5, Feb 24, 2012
I don't think it is that long... usually people just choose one part to correct anyway. - NikkiLR, Feb 25, 2012
And I don't think that is from a translator... I put the English version in Google translate... It was just horrible. - NikkiLR, Feb 25, 2012
Sorry, that is good advice. I will try and shorten my translations in future. I like to try and do one every week about difficult topics. Would anybody mind telling me a couple of the mistakes if it is tenses or vocab?It was all done by me, not a translat - twistandshout, Mar 1, 2012
