I'm sorry to ask you guys this, but can you say this?

"The reason for this is simple: a lot more people retire than enter the job market."

or should it be

"[...] a lot more people are retiring than entering the job market."

I'll buy your stuff, as long as you pay for the shipping and all the other expenses needed for the purchase.

rather than would make it clearer, but both seem fine, depends ultimately on the first sentence for the second option, if its a different subject than the job market then it should be its own sentence rather than the same one otherwise run on sentence
semi colon should also work i think

Oh, thank you! ^^ I just put the [...] to signify that it was also "The reason for this is simple" because I was too lazy to type it again :blush: I meant if it's better to use the -ing form there or the simple present tense? :unsure:

@ Selli: 2nd sentence was clearer, IMO.

Can't wait until 6pm. Get to go pick up Mario Kart 8 :ph43r:

ok that makes more sense haha
both are fine but if you wanna get technical i would say it depends on what you are saying, are you explaining a newer phenomenon of people retiring? in which case 'retiring' makes more sense but if you are describing a steady trend of more retirement than employment than simple present works fine

Also, based on how the context and subject of the paper seems, the second option is probably the better choice.

Hello mummy!! *Glomps* I think the second! ^^ But both seem suitable. I think the if the paragraph uses mostly present tense, use the first, and if it uses more past tense use the second. @.@

Then perhaps instead of putting 'the reason for this is because', you could just say 'this is because' or something else to condense.
