Boomers are retiring en masse... Demographics phenomena which will last a decade or so..
gpt
Demographics are baked in for 40 years and it’s a global phenomenon that is getting worse, not better.

Immigration to USA has halved and looks to slow up further. Over half of all countries are losing population within a decade.

Japan is losing 500,000-700,000 people per year.

China has an unknown population that peaked sometime between 2018-2022 and exports 1,000,000 people per year. They are set to start losing 500,000 per year with an exponential growth pattern that will see the population drop by 700,000,000 in the next 60 years with no current sign of reversal.

So yah, labor is getting scarce.
