DAILY SIGNAL: Why More Americans Have Nowhere to Live
The cost of housing rose again last month, making it even more difficult for Americans to afford a home of their own.
Inflation is just one of many problems creating a housing crisis in America. On today’s episode of “The Daily Signal Podcast,” James Burling, a property rights lawyer with more than 40 years of experience, documents how zoning laws, environmental regulations, and progressive Democrat policies like rent control and affordable housing mandates have put the dream of owning a home out of reach for families.
Burling is the author of a new book, “Nowhere to Live: The Hidden Story of America’s Housing Crisis.”
Through his work at the Pacific Legal Foundation, Burling has examined the misguided government policies that contributed to the problem of too few homes for Americans. His book diagnoses where the government went wrong and suggests steps that policymakers—and individual citizens—can take to get out of this mess by restoring private property rights.
