That is very much addressed in the content of this paper. from the introduction > An obvious candidate for this decline in younger men’s hours is a decline in demand for their labor, resulting in a corresponding reduction in their real wages. There is evidence that declining demand for manufacturing and routine employment has contributed to a secular decline in wages and employment rates for less educated workers.2 However, we show in the next section that real wages of younger men have closely tracked those of their older counterparts since 2000. This suggests that the greater decline in younger men’s hours is not readily explained by a differential decline in labor demand for younger versus older men.
