Los Angeles City Council just voted 12-2 to cap rent increases at 4% annually, and as usual, they're solving the housing crisis by... making it worse? These progressive geniuses think slapping price controls on a supply shortage will somehow make rent affordable, while completely ignoring that their own policies created the problem in the first place.We break down the economic reality behind LA's new rent control madness: how it discourages new construction, drives builders to Texas and Florida, subsidizes high-income residents, and forces landlords to defer maintenance. When it costs a million dollars per unit to build permanent supportive housing in LA, maybe the problem isn't greedy landlords – it's layers upon layers of progressive regulations that make everything impossibly expensive.Do you think rent control will actually lower housing costs, or are we watching politicians shoot themselves in the foot while claiming victory? Will LA residents finally connect the dots between their voting choices and skyrocketing living costs? Let us know what you think, and don't forget to subscribe for more government accountability content as we watch these policies predictably backfire.

Part 2: In the explosive conclusion of Tom Bilyeu's in-depth conversation with Destiny, the pair dive straight into the heart of American and global economic anxieties. Picking up the conversation midstream, they examine the crisis of US debt, deficit spending, and the looming consequences if America loses its economic dominance. Destiny challenges the myths around labor, productivity, and the decline of manufacturing, arguing that America's edge might not always be where politicians think it is. The conversation spirals into a confrontation over trade, international competition, and whether the populist backlash against globalization is truly justified. Tom and Destiny wrestle with the cultural and political magma of the Trump era—addressing authoritarian tendencies, threats to democratic norms, the danger of hyper-partisanship, and the ramifications of weaponizing government institutions. As they close, Destiny lays out his vision for restoring civil discourse—a strategy for holding both sides accountable and cultivating a more honest, functional public debate. This is a masterclass in unpacking the roots of America's polarization, with hard-hitting reflections on leadership, values, and what it truly means to steer a country toward a better future.

Host Cara Stern is back from parental leave, and she and Mike are jumping right into one of the most debated topics in housing policy — rent control. Inspired by Zohran Mamdani's campaign rent freeze proposal, they dig into how these rules shape the housing market, not just for landlords and tenants, but for entire cities. While rent control offers stability and predictability for those lucky enough to have it, it can also quietly freeze people in place — making it harder to move for a new job, grow a family, or even downsize later in life.In this episode, they explore how rent control affects mobility, opportunity, and fairness between long-term renters and newcomers. From young families trying to upsize to seniors staying put in oversized apartments, Cara and Mike unpack the tradeoffs behind this well-intentioned policy.

Todd unpacks the rising fascination with democratic socialism and what it means for everyday Americans as New York City prepares for a Zohran Mamdani administration. From rent freezes and city-run grocery stores to free childcare and a $30 minimum wage push, Todd explains why price controls and top-down planning sound compassionate but break down in the real world. He walks through historical examples—from 1940s rent caps to the 1970s gas lines—to show how shortages, disinvestment, and lower quality follow government mandates. Plus, a quick note on the Senate filibuster chatter and why “there's no problem too big for government” is a dangerous creed. Conservative, not bitter—tune in and decide for yourself.

Tenants across Ontario were already mobilizing against Bill 60 when a bombshell dropped...Premier Ford floated an idea that would have stripped renters of almost all their rights.The good news: organizations like York-South Weston Tenants Union had already put in the work and created a structure that could quickly gather folks together and harness the energy that it generated. They were able to get the Premier to back off, but the work is not done.Hear from An, one of the organizers from YSW Tenants Union, about how they've mobilized hundreds of volunteers to not just push back against pending legislation, but to continue building the Tenant Class for more fights that are sure to come.

In this Halloween edition of American Potential, host David From talks with Heather Andrews, Western States Regional Director for Americans for Prosperity, about Washington State's frightening new housing policy. Lawmakers promised relief for renters with a “rent stabilization” bill—really a rent control measure—that caps rent increases but ignores the real cause of sky-high prices: a massive housing shortage. Heather explains how the law threatens to scare off builders, shrink rental supply, and make affordability even worse for families already struggling to find a place to live. Together, they break down why quick political fixes like rent caps only freeze broken markets in place, and what real reform looks like—tackling zoning restrictions, cutting permit delays, and slashing the $140,000 in government costs it takes just to break ground on a new home in Washington. From Seattle to Spokane, the real solution isn't controlling prices—it's unleashing supply.
We cover three major shifts in Canadian real estate: BC Land Ownership: The Cowichan Tribes won a land title ruling in BC Supreme Court, challenging ownership certainty since 95% of BC is unceded land. This creates risk for developers and lenders due to legal ambiguity. Ontario Rent Control: The government quickly abandoned plans to consult on "security of tenure" rules, showing the political power of tenants — over 50% of Toronto households rent. This reflects a shift toward renter-driven housing policy. Interest Rate Uncertainty: The Bank of Canada is signaling fewer rate cuts than expected, with markets pricing in a "pseudo-pause". This creates challenges for both homeowners and renters. The common theme: power is shifting in Canadian real estate — Indigenous nations reclaiming land, tenants reclaiming policy, and the Bank trying to reclaim inflation control.

As the 2025 municipal elections approach, the New York City mayoral race has garnered national buzz, with one issue particularly capturing attention: rent control. On this episode, hosts and finance professors Jonathan Berk and Jules van Binsbergen explore and unpack the best possible reasons for rent control, and why oftentimes – those reasons still come up short. They contextualize their discussion with historical examples from Chicago and San Francisco, analyze the arguments for rent control, and explain how despite rent control's aim to bring more balance to the tenant-landlord dynamic, its negative repercussions on housing supply might outweigh the benefits.

Journalist Josh Molina breaks down the controversy over the proposed rent control/stabilization ordinance leading up to Tuesday's Santa Barbara City Council meeting. Two members of the council, Wendy Santamaria and Kristen Sneddon have drafted a proposed ordinance and the council will decided whether to place the matter on an agenda for discussion/vote. The proposal calls for rents not to be increased more than 60% of CPI annually. Questions have also arisen over the proposal's transparency.

Mike Stephen discusses the push for rent stabilization in Illinois with the Lift the Ban campaign coordinator Diego Morales and then learns about XL Fest, a local festival that brings Chicago creatives together, from Creative Cypher founder Troy Pryor.
There is an ongoing effort to restore rent control in Massachusetts. Homes For All, a housing justice coalition in MA is pushing for a ballot initiative that would create a statewide “rent stabilization” program that would tie annual increases for most apartments to inflation, with a hard annual cap at 5 percent, but also include some exemptions. Are you for or against rent control? Why or why not?*The Homes For All Massachusetts Coalition is not available to join this evening's discussion*

In today's deep dive, Tom Bilyeu tackles one of the hottest—and most misunderstood—topics in urban life: rent control. As rents skyrocket in cities like New York and San Francisco, and an entire generation struggles under crushing debt and soaring housing costs, the call for rent control has become louder than ever. But Tom asks the hard question: does rent control actually make rents more affordable, or does it trigger a downward spiral of housing shortages, urban decay, and economic stagnation? Drawing lessons from around the world and diving into the history of rent control policies in cities like New York, Stockholm, Berlin, and San Francisco, Tom exposes the hidden costs and unintended consequences of top-down economic interventions. He argues that while rent control might sound like a lifeline for struggling renters, it often backfires—making things even worse by stifling new construction, deteriorating housing stock, and trapping communities in economic hardship. Through compelling stories and insightful analysis, Tom explores why these policies persist, the powerful forces—like NIMBYism and regulatory capture—keeping housing scarce, and how cities like Houston and Tokyo buck the trend with market-driven solutions. Packed with examples, practical takeaways, and a passionate call for economic freedom, this episode is a must-listen for anyone trying to understand the real roots of the housing crisis—and what can actually be done to fix it.
