Chinese property hunters to raid US

Chinese bargain hunters are preparing to descend on American cities such as Los Angeles and San Francisco, where homeowners have suffered some of the steepest price falls in the US.
SouFun, the biggest real estate website in China, is organising a trip next month to look at properties in California and possibly Nevada. Liu Jian, the company’s chief operating officer, said about 300 people had expressed interest in the idea in the three days since it was advertised, though the company would take only a small group on the first trip.
The globalists have put america on sale to enhance their relationship with totalitarian chinese, who's (sp?) philosophy they admire most.
With leadership like this, who needs enemies?

I am POSITIVE not a single conservative is worried about this or denounces it since it was under your hero Reagan that we began treating the Chinese like they were better than cuba. And then it was Bush I that really pushed MFN status. This is the conservative dream come true. This is what all you wanted. To open our markets up to the chinese. Well open they are.
Truthmatters
They have been selling roads and bridges to them for years.
The same panic happened when the japanese were buying properties left & right years ago. That turned out to be nothing.
But please tell us, isn't the free market the answer to our economic woes? Isn't this an example of the free market?
And you conservatives that are whining about this, please tell me why a property owner who is unable to sell his property should refuse to sell it to the chinese?
Do you expect them to cut it out of the landscape and carry it back to china?
This is bullshit reactionism from the same people who scream about government intervention.
You lookin' at my pint?
Is it just the Chinese you're after or is it foreigners in general who shouldn't buy American property?
(BTW i'm not buying.)

I didn't know conservatives were screaming about this? I haven't seen any on this thread. We used to ban blacks from buying properties in certain neighborhoods should we do the same with non-American chinese? Should we ban those from Latin Americans from buying property in Miami?

Please, if a liberal can throw a fit about having wind turbines in the ocean off of his palatial estate, i can easily see him whining about chinese buying american property.....at least if it would make him his neighbor.

I dunno about that. I had a leftist poli sci professor who is really into China, and has sour grapes toward American foreign policy for the way we isolated them politically, and treated "Taiwan as the true representative for x million Chinese people."
He's one of those guys that has a soft spot for Nixon on this issue.

Does anybody remember back when the Japanese were taking us over by buying property?
Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
- -- Aristotle
Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
- -- The Buddha
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
