Here's some data: https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/CIVPART https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/CIVPART I'm not gonna claim anything here but do agree what firms / business are mostly complaining about is key employees changing jobs more so than leaving the workforce entirely.

In professional circles, maybe you see some people retiring sooner than they would otherwise would have. Don't know. I haven't really seen that myself though. [ADDED: That's not really true in healthcare. I had two primary care doctors retire on me over the course of a year.] Certainly I've seen a fair bit of motion among fairly senior employees between companies but I don't know how it compares to the baseline. What anecdotally is the case is that there are a lot of staffing issues for service sector jobs.

  > In professional circles, maybe you see some people retiring sooner than they would otherwise would have. Mother was working as a teacher for over 40 years. A real teacher by calling. Kids loved her, always got the most flowers and chocolades etc. Unfortunately she had to retire prematurely because the work conditions became terrible. Goverment wants you to do more and more for the same pay. On top of that ppl quit and you have to fill in for them too. Slowly the situation will resemble retail sector. Healthcare and Education are the two sections we should NEVER be cheap on. Unfortunately our rulers dont see that.

      Sports stadiums and elite coaches, and doctors' third summer homes don't pay for themselves.

    It is primarily to keep the populace "under-educated" to keep them on the "universal basic income" and remove all motivation to "work".
