RFK Jr. breaks down his plan to make housing affordable again in 3 minutes
“Number one, I would make it much less advantageous in the tax code for these big investment firms—BlackRock, State Street, Vanguard, Fidelity, Blackstone—to buy tens of thousands of houses.
26% of houses last year were bought by investment firms.
I’m gonna create what my uncle created, which is a 3% mortgage for first-time home buyers for lower-priced housing.
That’s not gonna work unless we also dramatically increase the housing stock.
The President … has very little control over zoning laws and planning board laws.
But there are incentive systems, and I’m going to assemble a task force to create incentives for localities to ease their planning regulations, zoning regulations to allow sensible development of tiny houses, for example.
There’s such wonderful innovations in housing right now, prefab housing that is very cheap to make … and to allow people to build accessory housing.
I’m also gonna start a domestic peace corps, so a lot of the people who might otherwise only have an option to go into the military, can do their service to America.
There’s 280 malls that have gone bankrupt in this country, and I’m gonna turn those into factories to build prefab houses, and I’m gonna bring kids into those factories and teach them the trades, teach them electricity, HVAC, carpentry, and start rebuilding the infrastructure.”

A rock band is performing and the singer sees a kid with a banner asking to play guitar with them. The singer asks him:
- Do you really know how to play guitar?
- Yeah!
- What's your favorite band?
- Guns N' Roses
What happens next is incredible.
