Don't know if thats creditable or not but apparently 1.1million more people retired during 2020 than the year previous. We all know boomers are going to start passing the torch soon. Has this massive economic shift, that has already been underway, been accelerated due to the holocough?

The boomer generation was largely responsible for the expansion of small business in the United States post WW2. When they "retire" that usually means passing the torch to the younger family to run or, selling out entirely for a fat check. Reminds me a lot of Microsofts method of acquisition and destruction.

What are your thoughts? Are retiring boomers having a notable effect on the supply chain when retiring? Or is it just the lazy young people?

I hope you're not also conflating laziness with the struggle of starting up and maintaining a business that younger generations face given the extreme regulatory burden and permitting cost etc that was set in place by ZOG under the boomers' watch. I work for a small, private business and hearing the founders and owners talk about how much more difficult is it to operate today given all the regulations and such makes my blood boil.

One of the sectors we hear about having a looming age crisis is the trucking industry. There is iron parked up all over the northwest and not enough young men getting into the business to replace the old timers as they retire. I've run projects trying to incentivize young men to sign up to drive log trucks and you know why they won't buy a truck and "work hard" like their dads? Insurance and permitting costs that eat so far into their already stagnated wages that they can barely afford to keep diesel in the tank if anything goes wrong.

I do agree that there is a massive work ethic problem. But I disagree that the supply chain issues are as simple as "you damn kids just don't work as hard as we did".

Apply my life facts to your questions. I am a 40 year Union Democrat (retired) and Bill Clinton was the LAST Democrat that supported Labor. The Boomers worked every fucking day and got Nothing from the Gov.. WE Made Social Security and Democrats (LBJ) STOLE IT to PAY for Welfare for those who earned Nothing. Obama= Soros/Liberal/communism, stole working Americans Paid health ins, to give unearned welfare to More that have earned Nothing. Most Boomers were Not Liberals, but working Democrats and that stopped with Clinton.
