Summary
This week, Human Reaction takes a brief break from its usual news and politics format while David Rand and Joe are both traveling. Instead, David shares a special interview from his new project, Build the Dream , produced through the Land Liberty Movement . In this conversation with the Libertarian Christian Institute, David explains why he believes America's housing affordability crisis is fundamentally a supply problem driven by decades of restrictive zoning, land-use regulations, and government planning. Rather than focusing on popular villains like institutional investors or developers, he argues that restoring property rights and making it easier to build housing is the most effective path toward making homeownership attainable again. The discussion explores how policies like accessory dwelling units (ADUs), zoning reform, and reducing bureaucratic barriers could increase housing supply, strengthen communities, and help restore the American Dream. David also explains how churches can play a larger role in addressing housing shortages, why Montana's recent housing reforms have drawn national attention, and why housing affordability has become one of the defining political issues facing younger generations.
