meh I don't think it has much to do with the labor force. I think there are two greater factors. My observations as a genx, diet and exorcise has changed much and especially impacting adult development.

1. GMO's and all the fake food now. We didn't have this crud, not so much, where everything now is loaded with sugar etc. May as well be eating sawdust now. So, poor development as well as insufficient muscle maintenance. You add water to your vehicle and see how it runs too.

2. Though I had a computer, a C64 etc, most didn't. Best we had was dial-up BBS servers, not even really interlinked. We had no mobile computers either e.g. smartphones. Staying in all day was generally considered a bad thing, unless you were watching a game or something. No matter if in school or holding a desk job, people just got out and did stuff, regularly.
