Chris breaks down the collapse of a bipartisan housing bill and argues it never would have made homes more affordable in the first place. From rising construction costs and tariffs to burdensome permits, regulations, and local government red tape, he explains why government intervention often drives housing costs higher. Chris also challenges political tribalism, questioning why so many people change their views based on who supports a policy rather than what's actually in it. The real solution, he says, starts with reducing barriers to building—not creating more federal programs and handouts.
