Economics In Brief: California Law to Slow Down the Big Investor Housing Grab Passes First Test
A mother of five and grandmother of three, Foreman's victory was the first test of a new California law intended to give communities and tenants the chance to stem the massive tide of large real estate investors who've bought up hundreds of thousands of distressed single-family residential properties across the state over the past decade, flipping them for profit or turning them into market-rate rentals.
Local public radio station KQED first reported earlier this month on how the home Foreman had been renting ended up on the foreclosure auction block. Bidding started at $175,000. The winning bid was for $600,000, from Redondo Beach-based real estate firm Wedgewood.
Opinion: With trickle-down economics a failure, Biden sees an opening to invest in the American

This growth rate is a good sign that the economy is starting to take off, both in terms of increased employment and overall economic growth .
This promising economic performance could be not only a welcome change from a very bad year, but the beginning of a new era that brings forth increased and widely shared economic prosperity.

Cut taxes on the rich. Unleash a wave of entrepreneurship. Growth will pick up and more jobs will be created. Everybody benefits. That, in essence, is trickle down – a theory of economics that Joe Biden wants to consign to the dustbin of history.
The US president was a young politician when the idea that cutting taxes on the well-off would be good for the poor first came into vogue in the 1970s. Now he has used his first address to a joint session of Congress to call on the US's top 1% to pay for his $1.8tn (£1.3tn) American families plan – higher spending in areas such as education, childcare and infrastructure.

Workforce housing solutions making their way through Capitol | Economics | apg-wi.com
Both sides of Wisconsin's political aisle are circulating legislation to increase affordable housing as a way to tackle workforce issues.
Statewide housing supply is at historic lows. Median home prices continue to rise and apartment rent increases are outpacing wage growth. The situation is spurring possible fixes from Democratic Gov. Tony Evers and GOP lawmakers.
Median home prices surged in March as housing supply continues to shrink compared to last year, according to the Wisconsin Realtors Association's most recent monthly analysis. Total listings of homes for sale fell about 37% over the last year, pushing median prices up over 10% to nearly $230,000 over that same period.
