I watched some of the video, not all of it. It does what many Republican videos do when it comes to economic policy... smoke and mirrors.
California, the Republican state boogeyman was used as an example of Democrat mismanagement. California is a complex state, and it's far from totally Democrat controlled. Plenty of annoying Republicans, such as Darrel Issa and Devin Nunes, come from California. There have been plenty of Republican governors, as well... one was even a two time President. None the less, California is a state that has an economy bigger than most countries in the world. It's uniquely beautiful, with hundreds and hundreds of miles of oceanfront property, and great job opportunities. As such, good jobs, great weather, and access to the oceans and mountains make housing prices outrageous.
As a professed Conservative, would you really want California to limit the amount a private citizen could sell their house? Would Republicans recommend rent control to lower rental prices? Of course not, they just like to complain about California. Again, meanwhile, California's economy is bigger than the economy of most countries. Yes, high housing prices and a huge population lead to a large homeless population. Look at California schools and California Universities - they are some of the best in the world.
It's a complicated subject and that video just seems to simplify everything - Democrats are bad... and free market Republicans that believe in no social services and a federal govt that only provides for national defense would make Democrat states with homeless problems better. Yeah, right... you know that's a bunch of BS.
