Alright, before you all jump me on Twitter and flood my DMs, here me out on this one. I’m not a huge fan of Johnny Harris (he’s just what Youtube needs, another bearded, white guy, in his mid-30s) but this video points out something I’ve been saying for years. Often, it is liberal, democrat voting, well-meaning people who create the most income inequality. A few years ago, Slate published an article about how the Upper Middle Class keeps down everyone else. I wrote something similar. Especially when it comes to housing equality, liberal homeowners often vote for policies that keep them in their homes and on the property ladder.

These policies exclude anyone else from getting on the property ladder or even being able to afford to live near cities where they work. Even when it comes to prices, these same people end up pushing prices down by demanding for less. These are also the people who demand the stock market stay high so that their retirement can continue to grow. If you can’t afford a house, assets, and income and wealth those things bring then you are simply told to work harder. This all contributes to a system of ever-increasing asset prices that lead to everything in our lives getting more expensive. Sound familiar? In this video we’re going to learn all about this process and how Liberal homeowners are helping to increase income inequality.
