Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Lower birth rates in the United States and other developed countries are resulting in a smaller labor force. An even more substantial slowdown in the pace of growth of the labor force is projected between now and 2018, as the baby boom generation retires. In addition, the median age of America's workforce is rising, as the number of older workers swells while the number of young workers grows only slightly.
