On this week’s episode of Economic Update, Professor Wolff discusses the history of highly successful government-built and-operated housing launched in 1918, the gains won by UAW workers in the first contract at the Volkswagen factory in Chattanooga, TN, and the story of the three-year strike by the Newspaper Guild against the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, which was finally won—only for the paper's owners to shut it down. The second half features an interview with Rob Robinson about housing, affordability, and homelessness in the U.S. today.
