Political economist David Fields joins Bad Faith for a conversation goes beyond housing policy to unpack the roots of why the Democratic Party seems unable to provide basic improvements for working people even when in power. He clarifies the YIMBY vs NIMBY debate, how YIMBYism has been appropriated by corporate developers, and how false economic narratives (e.g. the supply/demand curve) have been weaponized to justify real-estate lobby-approved solutions to the housing crisis.
