This may be a takeover.
Not by the Chinese (Communist) government, but by Chinese people that want more property rights than they have in China. They may intend to come and stay permanently, gain citizenship and political office with the help of minority preferences, and then,...
Switch sides, strengthen property rights, install policy favorable to small business entrepreneurs, and leave the other minorities behind.
Right now, in California, Asians have the best grades and graduation honors in school, best job prospects, highest income, highest producers, smallest group of criminals, and close knit nuclear families, like children, plus many are Christian.
“plus many are Christian”
Long ago I was taught that there was a prophecy about the end times where China and Russia were to join ranks and invade Israel, but China doesn’t show. Always wondered about that. We have had missionaries there for a long time. Haven’t listened to pre-trib prophecy for almost as long so I am not up on it anymore.
Mexico can't afford it. The Chinese will need cheap labor for their colonial activities here.
The Chinese will learn what the Japanese did in the 80's; you can't take the property back home.
I grew up in Monterey Park, CA tell me about it!
RE: I was told by a white American woman living in Hong Kong a few years ago that she could by houses, even in mainland China. The profits had to stay in the country though, which was the only restriction she mentioned.

Well in which case the profits have to stay in a bank IN CHINA.
Next thing -— Did she ever consider one thing -— ACCORDING TO AMERICAN LAW, her profits in China are TAXABLE HERE IN THE USA?
It’s a crime NOT TO DECLARE her profits in China.
And if she keeps the money in a Chinese bank, any interest is earns in that bank HAS TO BE DECLARED AS INCOME IN THE USA.
We are one of two countries which does not recognize a territorial system. You are taxed as an American FROM ALL SOURCES OF INCOME IN THE WORLD.
There was a time when you could keep your money in Switzerland and it will be a secret account which the IRS does not know about. All that has changed when the Swiss capitulated to American political muscle.
China is so far, one of the few countries that can stand up to the USA and tell our government to stuff it.
I am sure the Free Trade Communists, who support Free Trade with Communist China, will have some liberal spin on this
Just think, it wasnt too long ago Free Trading with a Communist enemy got you Executed for Treason. Now we have fake Conservatives claiming Free Trade Communism is a Conservative idea. I am sure Karl Marx would be quite stunned to hear he advocated for something “Conservative”
