What are some social impaction of stopping and reversing the aging process?

I just saw in the news that scientist managed to reverse the aging process in mouses. This got me thinking about how it could impact human society if scientists can reverse the aging process for humans. I know it will lead to a larger population since people will live longer, perhaps forever. But what does this mean for social behaviors and culture like , family, retirement, economy, work, politics, religion and so on? Do you think it will eventually lead to force euthanasia when the population become to big to support, like for example, the government make it a law so that you can only live this many years before they put you down?
