U.S. Faces Severe Worker Shortage in Future
By JIM ABRAMS, Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON - The United States faces a severe worker shortage in the near future, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce' said Wednesday in advocating better education for Americans and changes in immigration law to allow in more foreign workers.

Chamber President and CEO Thomas Donohue, at a news conference outlining business prospects in 2006, said the country is ill-prepared to deal with the impending retirement of 77 million baby boomers.
"We have yet to secure an adequate supply of working taxpayers to run a growing economy and support an explosion of retirees," he said in his organization's report on the state of U.S. business.

I know of about 25,000,000 - 30,000,000 who would have been of legal age to vote and be a part of the workforce, if it were not for the 1973 Roe vs. Wade decision.

GOD, save us!
Help us to see our need for You, our need to repent.
May we seek Your face, and Your heart for life....
