Foreign Investment in the United States
Every country in the world has restrictions on owning property except the United States. Oregon, a state, will not sell coastal property. Minnesota only leases land around lakes.
A real estate man told me the Japanese are their best customers. Even our high prices are cheap to Japanese. Americans are in Tokyo stimulating interest in investments in the United States. The citizens of U.S. are selling out their own country. Many of the silent majority care, but feel helpless.
Our elected officials should pass laws limiting foreign investment in business and lease land only--never sell it!
