Most 20 year olds I know couldn't organize a drinking party in a brewery, let alone a revolution.

The generational "revolution" will be a quiet one.

Over the next several decades, I predict there
will be net migration out of the U.S. by younger
workers. The historical trend of migration into
the U.S. will reverse itself. This will accelerate
the demographic collapse of SS.

The first wave of the trend will be foreign-born
workers moving back to their home countries. I have
already seen this happen first-hand in the high
tech sector.

The second wave will be U.S.-born workers starting
to leave.
