(Reuters] – U.S. workers are not growing quickly enough to support the Fed’s immediate fight against inflation. James Bullard of the St. Louis Fed stated Thursday. This was despite the fact that he does not believe a surge of skilled labor will increase supply and reduce wage pressure.

Bullard stated that while we are bringing people back to the workforce, it is slow and does not occur at an adequate frequency to aid us in the inflation dimension.
