China owning US farmland

[LouderVol]

If you don’t understand why China owning that much farmland in the US is a major problem then I don’t know what to tell you. Believe whatever you want. Gates and Blackrock are big problems. So is China. Seeings how Biden is beholden to China, it’s a big deal. I don’t want any foreign nation to own ANY US farmland. As a matter of fact they shouldn’t be allowed to own any US farmland. Jesus man do you hate America that much???

how much farmland? The 160 acres in the article? My uncle farms more land than that on his homestead.

Chinese Communist Party billionaire secretly purchased 200K acres of US land a decade ago, sparking bipartisan outrage

Billionaire CCP member Chen Tianqiao’s $85M purchase of nearly 200K acres in Oregon made him the second-largest foreign owner of US farmland — and it was a secret for nearly a decade.

This is a major risk to national security. Something really should be done about it. Or maybe our politicians are all bought off by China anyways and that's why no action is being taken.

Our greatest adversary doesn't need to be owning anything within the US. Especially our food.

thats typically how it works. I don't think there has ever been an example of pure communism, just like there has never been pure capitalism. in practice communism TAKES the wealth from all and concentrates it under the parties chosen few. communism has always enforced huge disparities between the even larger number of have-nots and the smaller number of haves.

Just like the Russian Oligarchs and the NK ruling class.

I'm curious, Bull Springs is 33,000 acres of forest land. This is a "tree farm" not a food producing area. Where are the other 167k acres that he purchased?
