to get fired. i'm jim. there's a lot of trust marketplace value could this be just a value bubble where people just keep paying these crazy prices a lot more than they used to just literally a year ago just because they want to get a house there really isn't the evidence to help support them and i can say oh for sure it's worth. there's really i think some valid concern about valuations when the proof is so thin. it's always been a problem in this industry there is. just one way to determine what some is worth is look what other people paid off the other people were crazy. they were hoping to get $2000000.00 for these appear. you can see they built
6:36 pm
a game full of them and gave up and those are $5.60 square foot alice. everyone was going by the montra get in or you might get priced out forever because up to that point no one had seen any previous downturn just wasn't in the camera larry and nobody clinton realtors ever really thought a party is never going to end. i mean the thing about this is this is kind of i used to bill i was the engineer would design and layout build this stuff. i would work on these big development projects seize would come to us we want this done we gone build it
6:37 pm
and i sincerely believe that the work i was doing was building a great america. but then i started to ask some questions about what comes next. after we build something how do we take care of it what's the cash flow that makes this all work i started to look at developments that i had worked on or near run some larger math problems. for example developer would come in to build the road the developer paid all the costs to build it people have been paying their taxes and the idea was they pay their taxes and then the government would fix this road. the cost was $3.00 and $54000.00 to fix that road we asked the question ok based on the taxes the cities collecting from these people alone is going to take them to me to get the money they just spent. the answer 79 years. as an engineer i knew that road was going to last 2025 years this. does it make any sense
6:38 pm
. the growth creates what we call the illusion of wealth if you lose money on every transaction you don't make it up in volume. where we have today. we're like way out here. you can look at the run up to the housing crash as a prime example everybody felt like we're doing ok because you know yeah i made 12000 dollars housing payments but my house went up by 40000 i cashed out the difference i'm doing fine here's subtly skirting around the core problem which is that the underlying economy does not work. in 2000 we had 1100 census tracks in this country that you can classify as persistent poverty in 2010 it went from 1100 census tracks to 3300 census tracks 3 times the american geography is now in persistent poverty. our places don't work they're just designed

to decline. if you don't know what was lost you don't look at the place and see like this is decline. 143 if you're 10 years 20 years 30 years older than me all you see is wounds. and so it's really hard for you to get your mind out of that and actually see how this could be a better place. now we have it all off guard and so we've made it right i don't know maybe the middle east is heartbreaking the midwest is heartbreaking of all the places this is one of the last ones i live in but it's home and i you know there's a part of me that loves it too like i look at it and i'm like i want to help this place i want to make it better i'm moving a little google a street if you go yeah. that was that's our show and elysium and that's are there certain. after another.
6:40 pm
i'm educated enough to to know that i shouldn't talk about some things because i'm i'm i realize how ignorant i am i mean i grew up in a city that is 99 percent white and probably still is very close to that. but when you start to get a mixing of people in the community the others start to move in whether the other is someone of a different race or someone of a different social class i think excite colleges is that there's a natural human tendency to circle the wagons and what zoning did is again like this really wonderful tool to be able to write in a more camouflaged kind of racist way we don't want those people here. think the irony today is that it's also now trapped for white people their mechanics say as you go to why didn't they get out as for new break lads. what is in. there for
6:41 pm
$40.00 you know things are. not refrigerator. you know cream abdul-jabbar said the hyper problem we had today is less race than it is poverty and i think use exactly right i mean there's a racial element to it but. middle class whites will sacrifice poor whites too there's no racial loyalty there they're going to kick them to the curb. been able to travel around the country to experience different communities it's the same it's the same thing. so you see across the rust belt and you see across rural america people struggle and those struggles are kind of shared struggles with people in urban areas that have long been left behind when. you find that you can no longer
6:42 pm
get the mortgage week you can no longer cash out the equity when you can no longer get a car loan for the new car your world changes and your experience changes in america becomes like a really cruel place. starting to see more and more that is a mainstream experience how are you going to. win even the mission here and nobody out because i don't need no money for you. you can create a social contract to make tons of promises we now live in the day when those promises are coming to you. and that's not a left or right thing. kind of transcends left and right because neither side understands that they both want to go back to what they thought worked. or didn't work. max kaiser financial survival guide liquid

a success. baltimore is very similar to many cities in terms of the way that is being written and posted as loses between 1950 in 2000 baltimore lost 100000 1000000 for each region. so this out of the negatives they do people feeling like they have control over the systems of their lines. are. telling. me. not. to not find. me again. not only does not.

6:48 pm
but. i was sitting here in mind this watching the police in the children interact on the day of april 27th 2015. the children were thorax the police door rocks back at the children in a vision the police you know they're shooting were bullets and they deployed teargas and at the moment they deplore that teargas i'm sitting here and i feel like this weight come right on my chest and i'm like i can't breathe i can watch it anymore because i knew it was causing some sort of physiological reaction in my body. it really was a. powerful turning point because everybody when overdraft or food everybody went into throwing themselves into activism and nonprofit work and voluntourism. so just let's. talk about here so that's
6:49 pm
a. nice life to be with parker well. i'm originally from graham out the grim out area to me that small section of the neighborhood is everything because there's a certain level of pain you got to go through to be really from baltimore and when you really from a neighborhood that has a reputation you get was known as a state. i have. my little step you know. it's only for the last 2 digits of your. so it's a really big you know to be connected to a neighborhood. but people outside of street don't understand all of this stuff is about legacy. you don't really know where we come from we don't know how families so we need to sat at your street there and you put. it's really the only industry
6:50 pm
that we run we think we were going to say so from. your name what is your name what kind of name you want to leave your job. anywhere i want to have a problem because of my followers but because i'm not history do. blood i'm trying to tell you my help a lot of people just by giving them places to stay and don't know how to do it. i know too much about real estate. as. we. have seen so much.

6:53 pm
else into something young man was poking a water hose with a pocket knife. while i want you to know that see i'm right there. right damn. it 21 we know this spent too is fighting 25 and he was trying to give me more time than i had been on earth. it was scary but it was eerily familiar because it felt like no matter what i compass in my life been the 1st person to go to college graduate high school i felt like i was supposed to be there it's kind of hard for you to. take this stuff that we see here and translate it into the humanity of it as a person. a 1000000 got a $1000000.00 in restitution. $100.00 and that is $10000.00 less anybody i know
6:54 pm
anybody had to live $10000.00 less and that can lead us any time a recitation pay. while he. can't unilaterally said he said it sort of presentation pay these in a struggle they don't make the news these are the differences that make. people like myself turn off from everybody just self. you know what i mean because everybody has a shoe. when people make the claim of you know why would people burn down their own neighborhood but then you sort of live statement to sort of gloss over the fate that new used labor has don't have this need to begin with. the why would be burned on their own community i mean it really isn't a community that they've been able to have ownership in. don't push me cause close to the black community and close to that is it and i think that
6:55 pm
is sort of why we see some of the prism you see that. happen may begin to understand that black lives matter but black lives don't matter if black neighborhoods don't matter. i came back yes subsequently when i was a police officer. and it was all bricked up all the windows to doors. choice property now the. chance for 5 you know gentrification i suppose on one hand is a good thing for sure cleans up the neighborhood it makes it nice but my heart goes out to the people who once lived here who got moved down because when those poor people go you know they were forced out enabled by their homes are gone. if we as a country don't pay attention to. the places where people are the homes. that people. will continue to go in circles and that really get to the root problem.

when you look at a rain forest home you're seeing a very complex ecosystem. not only do you have these massive trees but you have all the understory all the animals every day leaf has its own individual ecosystem so when you add up all that you have this massive massive complex and. you compare that to say a cornfield. you have one species of plant the complete monoculture. and what you see is a very efficient undertaking a lot of corn in a very small space but you certainly don't have the complexity and the ability to thrive than a rain forest. so what we did is we switch cities from being complex systems to corn.
6:57 pm
and. you look back in history and the way humans evolved along with the city. and what you see is that messiness that friction that rubbing up against other people is an essential component. and there was a certain discomfort that went along with that there is also a social dimension to it that we've just completely lost. this pattern of development has allowed us to. intentionally enrich. the pain and the hurt and the needs that colin and all our places.
6:58 pm
