We Can’t Afford Not To

FRBSF Economic Letter, 2020, vol. 2020, issue 15, 08

Abstract: Three crises—health, economic, and social—are converging into one difficult moment in American history. Everyone has been affected, but the highest costs are falling on those least prepared to bear them. The path forward will require investments in “opportunity infrastructure” that maximize individual potential, reduce inequities, and lay the foundation for long-term economic growth.
