Even right now we are under a globalist BANKING cartel
which OWNS all the land and "unpaid" mortgages.

Think about this. The banks OWN IT ALL and we have to buy
it from THEM - when they did NOTHING to take it from us
what they did was buy all the politicians !!!!!!!

America is not free !!!! We are SLAVES to BANK MONEY !!!!!!

The Chinese people are not beholden to a foreign bank like we
are to the Federal Reserve which is a FOREIGN BANK.
They can print money and buy all American assets unless they
are restricted by laws which do not currently exist !

They have bought much of Central America and Africa already.

we are so screwed.
Take a chill pill, bud. Things will be OK. Just pay your mortgage payment and don't worry too much about who profits from it.

What I really want to kill is our businesses investment in lower wage countries. That is why I want to see countervailing tariffs that negate the price advantage of low wages, environmental laxity, government subsidy and all the other things that make foreign made goods cheaper then domestic production. I would also tax repatriated profits made by American investors in other countries.


There is no such thing as international Free Trade and their never has been. It is all controlled by the trans national banks. These need to be broken up and their monopolies destroyed before they merge all of our countries into one massive debt slavery.

no.
You're not even addressing the points in my post.
Your passive viewpoint has brought the total loss of freedom and sovereignty.

LOL. Last time the Japanese did the same thing and they almost lost all their money as they soon found out it was not that easy to run a profitable business. The Japanese sold many properties for loss.
It's all good business in USD! Keep it running and keep it coming!

yep. just like teh japanese in the 80s and 90s, the chinese companies are going to want to depend on government subsidies to run a profitable business, and they wont be there, and as such these chinese owned companies are not going to turn a profit, and will end up being sold at a loss to US owners who will then turn the companies around and make them profitable again.

the big mistake the chinese are making is that hotels and resorts are thin profit margin companies, with profits dictated by the whim of the public, and the season in which they are trying to make a profit in. they also have to be careful with their staffing. too much and they lose money, too little and they might make money for a while, but then start losing it due to a lack of service.

Yes, I recall when the News depicted Nippon as buying everything, Before them the UK and always Arabs from the various wealthy ME countries.

No strange reason why 1987's Diehard involved a Japanese firm. Remember Nakatomi Plaza. Yippee-ki-yay.

We can also thank GHW Bush and Reagan initiating and for negotiating NAFTA.

Back in the 90s, the Japanese were buying up golf courses and communities all over the USA. Are the Japanese selling them to the Chinese?

Hmm, where have I seen this sort of 'yellow peril' rhetoric before.

Oh yea, during the 80's and early 90's Japan bashing and buy American mantra from the neanderthals. As I recall an Asian American was killed by some idiot in Michigan, who wasn't even of Japanese origin.

I thought you'd keep your head down after Malheur, otherwise your foil is bound to get damaged.
