03: Opportunity Zone

Economic Refugees and the Monopoly Analogy

The hosts discuss the rise of "unhoused" populations in cities like Austin as a direct result of economic displacement from Opportunity Zones. Using a Monopoly board analogy, they describe how the poor are left with nowhere to land as every space is developed for profit. They call for a recognition of the "elite" as a common enemy across racial lines before signing off.
