Ha ha! Good question! There is a lot of discussion that China could end up owning our federal land and you will be speaking Chinese.

There is no collective ownership of America. Individuals only own what property they have a title to. Some real estate is occasionally sold to foreign investors/speculators, just as some people here buy land abroad.

Little known and acknowledged fact.

Loans from the Chinese are backed up by US mortgages.

Chinese elites are buying up prime foreclosed properties.

Tours are offered to show the homes up for sale.

Don't know how true it is but, I heard the National Parks are property of China.

I am familiar with the Laws Mexico has in purchasing Mexican properties.

A non-citizen cannot own property there.

Lifetime leases are available.

Any property within 60K of a coastal area is off limits and any area within 30K of the border is off limits also.

Does the UN own many of our National Parks?
Not sure of my information sources.
Just wondering if anyone else had reliable proof,
yea or nay!

To the best of my knowledge, no National Forests have yet been sold. I wouldn't hold my breath for the future.

Oh, and BTW, Willing. You are a very beautiful young girl. You really don't need to be wearing those silly wings.

I travel and I see a lot of things that make me quesion that. I am alive, with health and strength and notice that a lot of our jobs are being sent overseas, our buildings are being backed by foreign ownership.

People are coming here, buying new stuff and then buying up property that Americans have owned for generations, but are forced to sell because they can't afford it anymore. That is what is scary.!!!!!

Why do people cry about China so much? Sure they own about 26% of our debt but Japan owns about 20%. Its not that much difference.
