The Housing Crisis and Wall Street's New Profit Scheme
This chapter explores how Wall Street has adapted its profit strategy by buying houses directly from homeowners, pushing out those who genuinely need a home, and renting the same houses back to the original owners at inflated prices. The hosts discuss this as a consequence of late stage capitalism and express frustration at the lack of accountability for Wall Street, while also mentioning an upcoming interview series by their friend Marshall Kosloff.
