U.S. population is aging and heading towards a demographic cliff

The U.S. faces a demographic cliff. In the next decade there will be less 18-year olds to fill our nation’s colleges and universities. A census analysis predicts that by 2039 the number of 18-year-olds will decrease by 15% each year. Jeff Strohl explains the implications for America’s Future.
