    Republicans have been complaining about the dwindling workforce for years. Lower the working age and start getting more kids in sooner and get 4-5 more years out of them, extend the retirement age (most people can’t afford to retire anyway), and cut Medicare/Medicaid and force people to buy private insurance.
