  • Meanwhile, Marjorie Taylor Greene just proposed axing capital gains taxes on personal residences—Matty breaks down the potential winners and losers.


5. America’s Deepening Housing Crisis

  • A new Zillow report: a staggering 4.7 million-home deficit in 2023, even with 1.4 million new units delivered. Why millennials and Gen Z are struggling to get in—and what it means for the future of housing.
