What's Driving The Steady Decline

16 straight years in the same direction is a strong signal. The question worth asking isn't whether the trend is real — it almost certainly is — but what keeps it going, and whether that driver is still active.

A 26% move in 2022 alone is doing a lot of the work in this chart's overall story. Understand that one year and you understand most of what is driving the whole series.

The single most useful thing to do with this chart is compare United States against its neighbors or peers on the same wWII: projected number of living U.S. veterans 2036 series, not read the line in isolation — a number only means something relative to where everyone else stands.

This data comes from United States's statistical reporting, sourced from the link below. As with most cross-country indicator datasets, expect the underlying survey to run less often than annually, with gaps modeled in between.
