62% foreign owned! That is terrible. When I was a kid everything was made in the USA. It is a dangerous precipice we are on now. Globalization has been a way to destroy sovereignty, make multinationals and individuals fabulously wealthy, and destory much of what was good about our way of life. And hasn’t helped poor countries either.

I remember as a child farms all over that grew fruit, vegetables, dairy farms. Now? All gone.

Calpernia and I found that much of America is owned by the
UN, as I recall they were called Heirtage sites, this includes part of the southern farmland, our parks, the strip along the Mexican border, rivers and far more than you would guess.

40 years or so ago, Japan bought many of our farms, now they are owned by many countries and I am not up to date on who the owners are.

Russia owns part of America, more than I thought, and this instant, I can’t recall what they owned, but was surprised when I read it.

China owns most of our coal mines.

Our mining properties are owned by non-Americans and the mid-east owns far more than we know of.

Old company names, that I knew of when I was involved in mining, are now owned by foreigners..

Farm land either has houses on it or is not owned by Americans.

If we come into real troubles, we will have far more trouble than we can even guess at, food being the number one problem......my opinion of course.
