Answer:

The answer is: FALSE

Step-by-step explanation:

The US total workforce is not expected to decrease, not even because the baby boom generation may start to retire. The total labor force in the US was estimated to be 160 million people in January 2018. The total labor force has been steadily increasing since 1960 except during the great recession period between 2009 and 2011.
