That’s a bargain
I think it costs a million in Canada New Zealand or Australia,”

I was told years ago by a Swiss engineer that non Swiss could buy their way into citizenship in a certain town. Different towns had different prices, 30,000 or 50,000 or 100,000. The logic was that the current citizens had paid for the infrastructure such as roads, schools, etc., and the newbies needed to pay in to what was already created.

This a terrible program which mostly allows corrupt govt officials and their cronies into the US. Our pols love it because their friends and families are promoting the investments.

I just read about a lady that lived in Switzerland for over 20 years - Brit married I think - she finally went for citizenship and the town turned her down because she made their lives miserable complaining about things like noisy cowbells!
