Why You’ll Never Own a Home (The Truth About the Economy) | Sam & Braeden Sorbo | DSH #1846

At AmFest Day, we sit down with Braeden Sorbo and his mother Sam Sorbo from the Parents Demand Justice Alliance for a wide-ranging conversation on why the “American Dream” feels out of reach for younger generations — and what’s driving it.

We talk about the K-shaped economy, housing affordability, and why a single income no longer supports a family. Then the conversation turns to culture: how money became the definition of “success,” how that shift impacts family formation, and why sacrifice (not compromise) is the missing ingredient in modern marriages.

We also get into education — from school board conflicts to homeschooling, decentralization, and why curiosity might be the most powerful form of learning.
