The Dumb Kind of Class Warfare

In this episode of Capital Record, David Bahnsen delves into class warfare inspired by a social media post from Pro-Life Spiderman. He systematically deconstructs the flawed economic arguments surrounding private equity and housing, emphasizing the importance of factual accuracy and coherent discourse in promoting a free and virtuous society. Bahnsen critically examines the misconceptions about private equity’s impact on housing prices, student debt, and corporate monopolies, arguing against both traditional Marxian views and modern social media-driven misinformation.
