Where Have All the Workers Gone?
Demographics, Changing Values, and the Hidden Forces Reshaping the American Workforce
About this episode
In this deep dive episode, we unpack the complex puzzle of the declining American labor force participation rate. While headline unemployment numbers often look healthy, the reality is that a massive segment of the population has simply stepped away from the traditional job market. We explore the major demographic shifts driving this trend, particularly the aging Baby Boomer generation entering retirement, which accounts for a significant portion of the decline.
