Fed's Barkin says U.S. labor supply problems may outlast pandemic

I'm just breathing a sigh of relief that we're not talking about fear of Covid and unemployment now.

It also highlights my personal belief that Boomer retirements net decreasing birth rates will drastically reshape the Employment landscape.

"WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. labor shortages may outlast the coronavirus pandemic and limit overall economic growth unless the country comes up with better education, health and childcare policies to boost the number of people willing and able to work, Richmond Federal Reserve President Thomas Barkin said on Tuesday.

"Overall, this is a math problem. Over time, we can't grow without more workers. The best source of more workers is those on the sidelines. And those on the sidelines won't come back to the labor market unless the math makes better sense to them," Barkin said, through childcare programs that help parents, better pay and transport options, or even incentives for older people to stay in jobs."

"As our workforce ages and birthrates decline, we could find workforce availability limiting our economic growth," Barkin said in prepared remarks for delivery to a South Carolina Chamber of Commerce event, noting that while labor shortages have appeared acute during the pandemic reopening, they represent a longer-term challenge to the country.

October Strike was essentially an op, and COINTELPRO tactics are and were still in use to smother enthusiasm for labor action. Also, the FBI is responsible for TERFs. Unrelated but still related.
