I mostly see it as an opportunity for younger companies to have a chance against the bloated old companies. As a solid Gen Xer, most < 40 year olds I've been working with the past decade are really, really capable. Scarily so at times, but it makes sense because they've been exposed to far more information and education than ever. Those that take advantage of it are tremendous.

Now we do face a population crunch, made worse by many anti-immigration policies, and so that is going to be painful. Same with Boomers pulling their money out of the stock market. But we knew that was coming, and the smart people are ready for it in many ways, I think.
