Briefly discuss the baby boomers and their effect on our population profile

What will be an ideal response


The baby boomers are individuals born in the United States between 1946 and 1964, when birth rates were extremely high. As this group moves through different age categories, a bulge is expressed in our population profile. This group is now in the 50- and 60-year-old category. Because of the large number of individuals within the group, they have been able to influence market and political decisions, and are expected to continue to do so as they retire.
