Gene Ludwig

Gene Ludwig is an American economist and the president of the Ludwig Institute for Shared Economic Prosperity (LISEP). He has been vocal about the disparities in living standards in the United States, emphasizing that traditional economic indicators such as GDP do not accurately reflect the realities faced by many American households. Ludwig's recent findings reveal that a significant percentage of low and middle-income families struggle to afford basic living standards, which he argues threatens social stability and undermines the American Dream.
