It bothers the hell out of [i]me[/i]. I know each state has their own laws regarding sale of lands to foreign governments, and I know the Chinese have been using go-betweens in those purchases to try to mask the fact that they are the ultimate owners of that land, but state legislatures in blue states need to get a clue, for sure.

Half of us are that stupid.

Gee, a hostile communist gov't that has purchased and stolen US military secrets over the years, is intent on taking down America, is buying up farm land, and land near military bases...what could possibly go wrong?

What is more outrageous is the Wall Street hedge funds and the ultra rich like Jeff Bezos are buying up whole developments and most houses that go on the market. Americans are being condemned to be renters forever.

Foreign land ownership? Monitor the properties. Soybean farms aren't like covert tracking stations.

This is what you need to stop all this Biden bull shit [image]

It would probably be a good idea to ban the Chinese government from buying ANY American property.

If you think that’s stupid. The Australian government allowed the Chinese to buy the Darwin port (perfect place to build a navy base) and other ports around Australia too.

Democrats are that stupid.

But is the US government really letting China buy farmland near a base? Or is it in the process of being reviewed? And did the government sell the land or did the land owner sell it? Right now China, which is like any other foreign investor, owns something like 0.1 percent of U.S. ag land. The plant they're proposing will be run by Americans with American employees.
Personally, I'm against foreign land investors. And that includes real estate. But what this issue is about is fearmongering by Republicans. It's ironic considering how Republicans have, for years, pushed overseas manufacturing. This is about creating an enemy to distract in my opinion.

That way we won't have all those expensive sabotage trials. They can just bike over and get the information.

You really hit a nerve with the Chinese trolls on this site. Good job.

Another right wing troll inciting and baiting other right wing trolls.

Trump bothers me more than anything else I know of . ( I for one don’t have a very high opinion of him and his double talking deals).

Because all Chinese are nefarious?

Yes, we're that stupid. If we used the land for progress and sustainability and didn't nakedly worship capitalism without limits, it wouldn't be possible. This is a result, not a problem.

Why are a rightwinger's questions always so end-of-the-world dire?

yes you are and US critics from China buying houses in US with money earned by criticizing US 😂

But Americans are all about the dollars.

Joe is taking care of everything, and all the other countries love him.

They are buying farmland also. Population of China 1.4 [b]BILLION[/b] (2019)

Superficially it bothers me but keep in mind, when China buys US property it is putting its assets under our jurisdiction and legal control.

Yes we are that stupid.

They are?

Are we gonna go there without talking about the privatized real estate system also making millions of Americans poor and homeless?
You bet!
But how was the play, Mrs Lincoln?

This is only a thing because we’ve been selling arable land and water rights to China, Saudi Arabia, and other enemies of the United States for some time.

Who is selling those properties? The owners are the one to blame.

If someone is profiting from it then, yeah, we are that stupid.

They are not stupid. They are greedy traitors.

Is this our biggest issue right now or is it just something you decided to focus on because it is easier than the rest of the shit in the pile?

Lol...money talks bud...money talks.
