Foreign Owned Land 03 13 2025

 So the idea that no foreign country should be allowed to own Unites States farmland came up for discussion on an internet site.  And I am for that idea.  And really all Real Estate here should be U.S. owned.

Some people argued that we should really give all the land back to the Native Americans?

So what is wrong with that?

It has to do with this, you don't form a country unless you believe it to be based on superior idealisms?  And that is exactly what we did.

And sure, some of us are not so great here; I would say alcoholic money grubbing criminals.  But that doesn't change the fact that our country is meant to be comprised of those who strive for superior idealisms and individual freedoms and the pursuit of happiness.

And what is the lie with regard to we stole this from the Native Americans?  It is this, if we didn't somebody else would have and it would have been far worse for them, no matter what you believe was told to them by the enemies of freedom at that time. (Likely same enemies of freedom today.)

Every time a foreign country takes ownership of our land I would assert it lessens those superior idealisms and freedoms and pursuits of happiness.

And so we have a President who would allow foreigners to buy their way into our nation for $5 million dollars?  What are they buying?  It is like declaring the product of our education system is nil.  And they are going after that too, defunding as many as they can.  And perhaps I don't believe in the product of Ivy League Education either, nor do I believe in the product of Military Academy Education.  And yet I don't think we should be displaced by foreigners. And you wonder if grants were not somehow given by us to members of foreign nations so that they could buy their way in here?  I don't see how that makes us better.  I mean you could set up a whole finincial industry just as cheesy as a high cut cash checking place to loan money to just about any foreigner and have them pay you 25% interest on it?

*****'

Off topic.  So how much should an American be able to earn on their savings?  How much should an American pay in interest on consumer borrowings?  So If an American pays 25% interest or more on a credit card balance...lets compare that to the foreign bond interest rate on say Countries like Russia or China?  And the following numbers may be highly innaccurate.

The 10 year Russian bond rate is 14.57%

Looks like Chinas is 1.85%

The Uk is 4.6%

Saudi Arabia might be 4.3 %

Greece 3.71%

Iran 3.11%

So currencies are all interchangeable.

And therefore the Financial Industry, that actually trades against their own customers, would make an American pay 25% interest on a loan and however the nation of Iran borrows at 3.11%

Ask yourself who is being devalued by that?
