Description: Fannie Lou Diane & Manon Vergerio explain how capitalism profiting off of housing & homelessness is creating the conditions for people to live on the street or in shelter systems. "It's a money grabbing process. These shelters make money, and those people are counted as money for them. And so, that's one of the issues why homelessness is still deeply embedded in our society, and it really won't go away until people stop profiting off of it." - Fannie Lou Diane This is a clip from S12 E18 of Economic Update: Housing - Human Right VS System Failure Watch the full episode on our YouTube channel at youtu.be/2HS0RNk4sjE You can also listen to this show on our website or as a podcast on your favorite podcast player. ______________________________________________________________________________________ We make it a point to provide the show free of ads.
