From the Paper:

"The labor force is affected by the number of people retiring each year. This has a direct impact on the economy's capacity to produce goods and services. As boomers begin to collect Social Security, pensions, and other benefits, changes to both public and private retirement systems may occur, such as raising the ages of eligibility, creating flexible pension plans and altering employment practices. "
