but FDR did all this to SAVE CAPITALISM. Boo. Better to pull the plug on the whole charade and come up with something mutually beneficial to everyone. And that's why we are repeating this crap. Capitalism does not, and has never, worked for everyone. Get rid of it.
Why you never talk about Israel apartheid state and why it should be dismantle. Because you are a Jew Wolf. So, shut your mouth up about Europe’s problems and start talking about Palestinian-Israeli conflict instead. Don’t distract everyones attention away from your native Middle East.
False scarcity to increase the subjugation of the population.
As a former teacher I pay 55% of my previous income in rent in a dilapidated rental in texas 😢
Agreed. This and the pollution.
"U will have nothing, eat nothing & be dead & gone". Everything in order, here! So what are we're going to do about it?
People in Taiwan subscribed your channel! Face the reality is the basic and the best policy to change
I’ve been an architect for 30 years focusing on affordable housing. Between the draconian zoning ordinances, the hostile climate for building permits and the recent Supreme Court ruling criminalizing homelessness, I now consider the US to be a failed state and it’s government to be illegitimate. Revolution is the only solution.
Capitalists complaining of capitalism and monopolies... No wonder.
*2 of 2. This is how you always need to vote:* We must fully resist and _always vote_ against (& less authoritarian than) both the Democratic *and* Republican Parties- including Trump, Vivek Ramaswamy, Rand Paul (He’s _no_ Ron Paul), Thomas Massie, Warren Davidson, Ron Johnson, and all other Republicans. Vote in every single election- at all levels. And also _endorse or anti-endorse,_ in all elections you can, for outside your voting jurisdiction. For _all_ public positions. And this same strategy applies against the same one or more party-monopolies in _all_ countries worldwide. Real libertarians will never be Republicans or Republican loyalists. Never vote for _any_ Democratic member or loyalist either. If no candidates for a position fit that bill: -Where _write-ins_ are permissible, always write-in an anti-authoritarian person; -Where write-ins aren’t permissible, always vote uncommitted or leave the ballot blank. This will continuously reduce the power of _all_ authoritarian parties in the party monopolies. Until our task is complete. Repeat strategy for all new authoritarian parties that emerge.

Housing crises is in my family since 2016 and still is. Still paying rent and I am dentist have no house.
Why is USA making China a better option for everyone ? If Americans knew the effects of USA foreign policy, something they are far away from, they would be horrified .
Start early with diversified investments in stocks, bonds, and real estate. Maximize contributions to tax-advantaged accounts like 401(k)s and IRAs. Regularly review and adjust your strategy to ensure security....
People dont understand that the prices of things are never going back down. This inflation is deeper than we think. Those buying groceries are well aware that the real inflation is much over 10%. The increments dont match our income, yet certain investors still earn over $365,000 in stocks and assets. Wish I could accomplish that.
Very possible! especially at this moment. Profits can be made in many different ways, but such intricate transactions should only be handled by seasoned market professionals.
Some persons think inves'tin is all about buying stocks; I think going into the stock market without a good experience is a big risk, that's why I'm lucky to have seen someone like mr Brian C Nelson.
Finding yourself a good broker is as same as finding a good wife, which you go less stress, you get just enough with so much little effort at things
Brian demonstrates an excellent understanding of market trends, making well informed decisions that leads to consistent profit
Good lecture
Not a capitalist failure though, it's a statist failure. Look where homelessness is worst, and you will find regulations and red tape worse than other places. The market wants to build houses, the governments especially California want to control and limit in order to keep prices high for their donors.
Seeing the fox dude have an epileptic seizure as soon as he hears Richard knows what he's talking about is so funny lmao
America has to many things wrong with it to fix any of it. If you want to be honest we have fallen behind way behind some of the major countries and some of the 3rd world countries that are on the rise they will meet us on the way down.
Thank you for telling it as it is.
Right. If people could get along could buy sum land and put tents and tent stock on it and chill or tables to make there solution with the Microsoft phone apps and build reality seeking change or restarts thru employment places needed or training classes thru legal classifieds and take off as one thru bus lines or In temp pairs or groups til independent and rentals can afford or shift to another cheap land and auction off or interest account if sale to there individual accounts change matters is still water and snacks if large groups as strangers. Or take social skills adult classes and learn how to coexistence professionally then sick.
The housing bubble turned residences into one giant REIT. Look that up. For simplicities sake, each individual residence became a share of stock in an ETF that is manipulated easier than seats on a board. Just by owning a majority share of this necessary good, three investment firms controlled this outcome.
Deep state knew 4 years ago that Michelle Obama would be president in 2025
1 million people left Detroit with empty schools, homes, neighborhoods. But, you wouldn't want foreign people living there. Now these shopping centers n homes are all rundown.
RFK Jr. for president 2024. He is the only one talking about plans for addressing our housing crisis, the pharmaceutical crisis, our disease crisis, the farming crisis, the environmental crisis...
Why do we allow it?! How to force any change?
Why is common sense and advocacy for peace so difficult to find these days? What is wrong with these violent political policies? It’s truly alarming. The hate and wars in this world have made me in a state of shock. Thank you for being a voice of reason .
Agree 💯
Thank you Dr Wolff. OLIGARCH Act?
I guess we need a soviet style communist top down gov to build mega apartment blocks to give to the people. Or contract the Chinese to build us whole new cities in weeks. That way the open boarder policy will work better.
When capitalism has eaten itself from within lmao 😂😂😂 you have to laugh at this as the people supported this

Americans cant compete with $2 an hour working 16 hours a day to fatten the pockets of the leaders (ccp). But when the US regresses to the mean. Well see what people do. Will Americans stand up and fight or will they become servants of the state like the Chinese people.
Cut the military's and security's budget to zero..!!!
Yes!
The government in USA is controlled by big corporations, those politicians need corporate donations to fund their TV campaigns , commercials. This is outright bribery, isn’t it? Meanwhile our China is not a perfect country, but at least Our Top leader are not controlled by corporations and tend to their profits first. And they tend to the basic needs of average citizens, 9 yr free education, roads, highways, metro, high speed train, 5G , super cheap food and transportation cost in China.
Thank you Professor Richard. --👨🏽🦽🌴🦅☕️
So they didn’t fix the 2008 Subprime collapse. But it’s not a surprise to anyone who followed it. They covered up with paper and bought time with mountain of more debt nothing more. Making this recession far worse.
Thanks!
Thanks!
That horrible mayor Koch along with Reagan helped perpetuate this real estate disaster. So many former hippies I know bought their apartments in the early 90s here in NYC bringing about rents going insane. Did you buy a condo or coop in NYC the 90s Mr Wolff?
I'm not a scienctist, nor an economist, not even good at using English as a langurage, but I understand there is nothing can be created out of thin air. How would a country with 750 millitary bases and number one economy in the world in terms of GDP making more money without even producing enough "real" things, but instead have huge group of lawers, investers, and the whole "wall street gangs", thus making money out of money, that's insane.
Shortage of affordable housing . Getting worse with illegals being brought in . Only ones can afford housing in 10 years be only high upperclass and wealthy
What did you expect to happen, in the plutocracy that disguises itself as "capitalism" in the West? When 1% of the people have 70% of the wealth, this is what happens. There are billionaires, and trillion dollar companies, who simply buy up ENTIRE blocks on a daily basis. MANY of them remaining empty for years, even decades, because these people don't rely on the RENT to pay their bills. What you need are a simple set of laws, where EVERY homeless person, or family that is inadequately housed, will be gifted to live in ANY of these millions upon millions of homes. And that any SINGLE MAN OR WOMAN, any ONE person, can own no more than THREE houses / properties, and they must not be in the same STATE. Why would you want to own three houses in the same State? So instead of Mr Smith over there, a supremely wealthy man, owning SIXTY houses and appartments in his city (but only residing in ONE), while the two dozen homeless people die on the streets, or the young single mother of three cannot abide her one bedroom apartment any longer, we get EQUALITY of one of the basic requirements of life : a home, for everyone. Not SIXTY times over for a few, and ZERO for many.
Human gread
Thank you Prof Wolff for sharing important data that affects the average citizens quality of life, in layman terms!
$200 million... for homelessness in America... Talk about putting a bandaid on a shark bite...
The housing crisis is just another iteration of a collectivization policy. Those at the top, are plundering the suburbs, cities & poor communities of badly needed places to live. All Empires crumble due to their avarice greed & hubris. Thx Prof. Wolf for the informative video drop!
Truths.
Thanks!
You’re not addressing the issue! In cuyahoga county Ohio, 63 cents on every dollar paid in personal property taxes goes straight to the Teachers Union! We are paying a sewer bill to NEORSD! Ever hear of it? $62+ a month! For a 100 year old sewer pipe in the ground so during heavy rains our basement floods with raw sewage! The working class is enslaved to the political system that campaigns on Free everything and squeeze’s the working class into poverty! Socialism is here to stay! America is dead! Fallen! Finished! We are a third world country! Its over!
