The mainstream media is saying that there's about 2-4 million people out of the workforce with "long covid". The antivaxxers are claiming that those are outta the workforce because of vaccine damages.

Early retirement certainly played a part. As well as women leaving the workforce to become stay at home Moms given the crap going on in the schools.

... and yes...crime pays.

Government pensions also encourage early retirement in order to sponge off of the public as long as possible, without doing anything useful.

A cousin of mine was the accountant for a Bay Area county and laughed about what an incredible scam government pensions are, while collecting his.

Never stopped working. Inflation up. Taxes up (except I left CA haha!) and no freebies for me.

Fixed:
Clot shot mandates certainly played a part.
