Episode 248: More Reasons For Real Worry

Play Now!

All too often today the forces driving the changes that increase suffering are hidden, unavailable for us to adequately understand, let alone change. Matt Stoller delivers yet another industry machination in this Episode 248: More Reasons For Real Worry.

In this episode, I read from: Matt Stoller's article titled "It’s the Land, Stupid: How the Homebuilder Cartel Drives High Housing Prices." Beyond his primer on Georgist economic theory, it's yet another great tip off that something very fishy is happening beyond what the commercial news blatherers are claiming.

Musically, I play: Podington Bear doing "That's Alright". Matt Stoller himself opens the show backed by KMFDM, and I close today with Mistle Thrush.

A Tiny But Exciting Update

Hey, Dear Listeners. Jim here, begging your indulgence for yet another late episode.

I had a show in the scripting phase, only to realize it was concerning a topic I not only already covered, but covered quite recently. Hey, at least I didn't give this one a name I've used before! (Actually, I used a name I thought was brilliant; it turns out that was because I had used the title's exact turn of phrase in the episode that already covered the topic. At least I'm predictable!)

Not to worry. I just found the perfect topic, a new-ish one that should wow and amaze you, and am right now in the process of transcribing the book notes as fast as my typey fingers can plop and flop on the keys.

Later!
