NPR has no idea how real estate works

[Brandon G.]

I was listening to NPR because they had a segment about rent costs and real estate.  Almost every single thing they said was the opposite of how the real world works.  It was equally infuriating and scary to think that people will be making policies based on the backwards logic that, although appeals to people's conscience, makes things worse by strictly regulating yet another industry.  

In a related note, I just finished The Housing Boom and Bust by Thomas Sowell.  I would highly recommend it.
