Last Friday, I appeared on Fox Business' Freedom Watch with Judge Andrew Napolitano to talk about the politics of home ownership and how it's distorted the economy to bad ends.

The short version: There's no way that the government can guarantee or heavily subsidize a class of assets without it all ending in tears.

Check out this blog post: "If Housing Was Overpriced, Is it a Bad Thing that Fewer Americans Own Homes?"

About 4.30 minutes.
