US human capital in decline?
Geoff Riley

Clive Crook’s excellent blog asks whether the US economy’s growth potential will be harmed by a forecast that “Over the coming years, baby-boomers departing from the labour force will have better educational qualifications than the younger workers replacing them. If the ultimate source of an economy’s ability to grow and prosper is its human capital, the US is in trouble.”
Is there an equivalent study available for the UK?
