Striketober

from Independent Thought Hosted by Desmond Price

In the first segment, I discuss the wave of worker strikes that are sweeping across the nation. I cover where they are happening, what workers are asking for, why I believe this is happening now, and whether or not workers should be striking. In my guest segment, I am joined by Karli Hughes. Karli is a real estate agent based in Western Montana. We discuss the trends that are being seen in the housing market, whether or not short-term rental or air bnb's are an issue, what first-time home buyers should do while saving up for a home, and whether or not housing prices are coming down soon.
