American Compass

Oren Cass is a prominent conservative economist and policy analyst who has authored several influential papers on various economic topics. Here are some of his key papers:

• The 2023 Cost-of-Thriving Index: This paper examines the affordability of raising a family in the United States and finds that it has become significantly more difficult in recent decades. Cass argues that this trend is a major threat to the economic and social well-being of the country.
• Remarks on Family Affordability at AEI: In this speech, Cass discusses the findings of his Cost-of-Thriving Index and calls for policies to make it easier for families to thrive. He argues that this is essential for the long-term health of the American economy.
• Surprising Consensus on the Productivity Problem: This paper examines the debate over whether productivity growth has slowed down in recent decades. Cass argues that there is a surprising amount of agreement among economists on this issue, and that it is a major problem that needs to be addressed.
