America's Looming Housing Crisis
Working Americans are being priced out of the housing market, rent is skyrocketing, and investment firms are snatching up all the homes to turn into rental properties. What's going on here? Why is all this happening, and is there anything we can do to stop it? In this episode, we'll discuss some of the factors that are contributing to this perfect storm of looming economic disaster, and consider what actions normal Americans can take to ease the suffering of their neighbors and fight back against the predatory status quo.
