abstract: 'The COVID-19 pandemic and the associated government-mandated shutdowns
|
|
|
|
caused a historic shock to the U.S. economy and a disproportionate job
|
|
|
|
loss concentrated among the working class. While an unprecedented social
|
|
|
|
safety net policy response successfully offset earnings losses among
|
|
|
|
lower-wage workers, the risk of continued and persistent unemployment
|
|
|
|
remains higher among the working class. The key lesson from the Great
|
|
|
|
Recession is that strong economic growth and a hot labor market do more
|
|
|
|
to improve the economic well-being of the working class and historically
|
|
|
|
disadvantaged groups than a slow recovery that relies on safety net
|
|
|
|
policies to help replace lost earnings. Thus, the best way to prevent a
|
|
|
|
``k-shaped{''''} recovery is to ensure that safety net policies do not
|
|
|
|
interfere with a return to the strong pre-pandemic economy once the
|
|
|
|
health risk subsides and that progrowth policies that incentivize
|
|
|
|
business investment and hiring are maintained.'
