Chinese businesses are buying up farmland for investment reasons I think.
Chinese economy is whack, but I don’t want them buying up US farmland all the same.

move into a site that is just 100 miles away from a US military camp where the Michigan National Guard has been training troops from Taiwan -
I loathe, despise, and abominate that National Guard base.

Probably true.

I will keep an eye out and let you know.

To whom it may concern: All of you idiots who think this is going to be rectified nicely are just that. Idiots. If they have that much of our our farmland, if they send in HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of agents ready to STRIKE at any moment...If they have secret labs ready to infect us at any moment...If they have 100% of the democrat party and 70% of the republic-nt party in their back pocket...
How do you think The Stable Genius is going to win an election he couldn't win when he was in power? (because he wasn't genius enough to prevent the steal)
How do any of you think this will end well? Without getting off your fat asses? Some of you won't even vote. You won't even defend yourself from a tranny fag soy boy or urban hominid hitting you in the face. You'll just stand there or curl up on the ground rather than FIGHT.

Didn’t a lot of states once have laws barring non-resident foreigners from buying agricultural land? A few still do, though there are ways of getting around them.

Yeah, Trump won Mecosta in 2016 & 2020 with 10k votes and 13k votes, respectively.
The Tater was only able to scare up 1,500 more ballots than Cankles had in '16 [5,800 for Hitlary].
Too far away from the ballot factories - but they still managed to increase "turnout" with the Michigan vote-rigging scheme.
I'll have to check 2018 & 2022 to see what they were up to.

"A rural community in Michigan has hailed a 'huge victory' after a Chinese-owned industrial firm backed out of buying local farmland."
I guess they'll have to look elsewhere to establish their new colony.

The Chinese bought Smithfield years ago. Our politicians have let them drill for oil, plus so much more.

The CCP paid the Bidens and Marxist Dems for the privilege to make the purchases. Maybe they all get a percentage of the ownership.

If Gates and the Chicoms are not farming the land, rezone it to commercial and charge them the higher rates.

To: Bayard
If our government were doing their job, a move should be underway to not only NOT allow any foreign ownership of U.S. land, but to begin to retrieve what has already been sold. You can’t have sovereignty when there is foreign ownership of U.S. land. Even the dimwits in our gov’t. (and there seem to be far too many) should realize that.

Nope. And from what I've read, neither can Chinese citizens. The most they can get is a long term lease. All land is owned by the communist party.
To: Bayard
They are buying land in many states near strategic locations. Also, planting crops and exporting it back to China. Water too, I believe.

Most of western Mi near the lake are Trump. Then farther north where we are is crazy for Trump.
Driving around our neck of the woods in this state you will see “Trump” painted on barns and signs everywhere.
That stuff down south is where all the liberals reside. Lansing, etc.
We are less than an hour south of the bridge.
