Description

Kyle Sweetland, strategic research manager at the Pacific Legal Foundation, joins the show to discuss the growing homelessness crisis in America. Despite decades of increased spending on housing programs, homelessness continues to rise, and Sweetland argues the root cause isn’t a lack of funding, but chronic housing shortages and regulatory barriers. He explains how policy failures, zoning restrictions, and red tape prevent effective solutions, and offers insights on market-based reforms that could expand access to affordable housing while helping communities address the crisis sustainably.
