China Is Buying Up US Farmland, But Just How Much Isn’t Clear

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

We should not be allowing this. The Chinese government is not a U.S. ally, most importantly. Furthermore, they do not allow foreigners to purchase land within their country, so why are we allowing them to buy ours? We keep treating the CCP with kid gloves, all because of the money our corporations make over there, and it's going to come back to bite us in the ass someday.

They're playing chess to our checkers. They'll win in the end. Hopefully they aren't too oppressive when they run the world.

I can just imagine some foreigner asking my mother to buy our farm.

Lol... It'd be priceless

I suspect the person asking to or actually doing the purchase is not Chinese but an agent here in the US.

Can a free country tell a private entity who they can sell their land to?

yes

They do play the long game, something the US can no longer do thanks to the massive partisan divide in the nation. The first thing a new POTUS does is undo so much of what the previous one did if they were from a different party.

Can a free country tell a private entity who they can sell their land to?

Absolutely

 

[Harpy Eagle]

Absolutely

yes

Perhaps we have different views of freedom.

they are a hostile foreign country,,,

Perhaps we have different views of freedom.

Really? You think a free country can't defend itself by denying the sale of land to a enemy power?

Looks like you have a different view of reality.

They are not hostile, there is no need for histrionics
