RE: my property is actually MORE MINE in China than it is in the US.

Surely you are not referring to property as in REAL ESTATE or A HOME. I assume you do not have Chinese citizenship and cannot own property there.

You must be referring to something else when you use the term — property.

Don't pay your local "property" taxes, the taxes that are used to pay local contractors who have the brother-in-law of the county commissioner as a silent partner.

Then tell me, when his skinhead, bloused-booted, badge heavy, legal thugs show up on your doorstep with an eviction notice and a SWAT team, who shoot you dog and your children as "a precaution" to protect themselves, who owns your home and property.

Actually, I am. I own a condo in Minhang district of Shanghai, have for about 2 years now.

I assume you do not have Chinese citizenship and cannot own property there.

Nope, still a US Citizen. Your information is incorrect; foreign ownership - up to and including 100% - of property and companies is perfectly fine in China. That exclusion was dropped about 5-6 years ago...

And I don't have to pay property tax every year; it was a one-time 1.5% fee at the time I purchased my place. After that - no taxes.
