Housing Market Whiplash Locks out Millions of Workers

The Socialist Program with Brian Becker - Podcast tekijän mukaan The Socialist Program

On today's episode Walter Smolarek and Prof. Richard Wolff discuss how huge numbers of people are being locked out of the housing market amid soaring interest rates and home prices, marking a dramatic reversal for millions of people who were hoping to buy their own home. With prices spiking for renters as well, the failure of the capitalist market to provide something as basic as affordable shelter is on display.
