The issues surrounding this trend have been a major part of the literature for the last two decades. It is now time to begin to turn our attention 30 years into the future when the number of “boomers” begins to decrease, and issues regarding excess capacity and the need for retraining labor, among others, will predominate. 0RUHRYHUWKHIDFWWKDWWKHJOREDOHFRQRP\FRQWLQXHVWRVWUXJJOHWRHPHUJHIURPWKHÀQDQFLDOFULVLVRI EULQJVEULQJVDQRWKHUVHWRIFKDOOHQJHVIRUWKHÀQDQFLQJDQGGHOLYHU\RIKLJKTXDOLW\KHDOWKFDUH)RUWXQDWHO\ the tremendous growth of our discipline has shown that we can collectively develop the tools and expertise necessary to investigate the potential implications of different strategies and insightfully inform policy.
