Today's housing crisis affects millions of Americans who simply cannot afford housing.
For many families, homelessness is no longer someone else's problem. It is right around the corner, a real threat in their own immediate future. Our housing crisis is the result of a long history of government policies, court cases, and political manipulation. While these disparate causes make up a tangled web, they have one surprising root: the attack on private property rights. For over a century, government policies and court decisions have attacked, undermined, and eroded private property rights. Whether it be exclusionary zoning, eminent domain abuse, rent control, or excessive environmental regulations, the cumulative impact of these assaults on private property is that it's become increasingly difficult-or even impossible-to build adequate housing supplies to meet market demands. We are fast approaching a time when millions of typical Americans will, quite literally, have nowhere to live.
Nowhere to Live: The Hidden Story of America's Housing Crisis takes a new look at this growing problem in America. Rather than calling for more big government, nanny-state "solutions" to the affordable housing problem (policies which have caused the very crisis they purport to solve), it exposes the true villain: government interference with property rights that has prevented the free market from responding to America's need for more housing. Nowhere to Live proposes that the solution is not more government fiats but reducing governmental interference in the housing market. The key will be the restoration of property rights.
