Agreed. “Intellectual”, “conservative” publications go bad just as surely as nonprofits originally funded by wealthy entrepreneurs.
Really? Does it do that, or does it just result in a stock bubble? It seems to me to be the latter, because I sure don't see the jobs.
The real estate they invest in never leaves the country, profits the American who sold it, and helps support the real estate market.
Another asset bubble, just like the Japanese big commercial real-estate 'investments' in the late 80's.
Buying our T-Bills keeps interest rates down and benefits every US taxpayer.
You mean benefiting every special interest: to me, this is a forced loan in my name used to benefit the banks and public employees. If government spending is out of control, interest rates should rise on T-Bills to reflect the glut of debt and heightened risk. If they don't rise, the market is being manipulated.
Slow as job growth may be it would be a lot slower if our companies didn't have access to capital.
Another asset bubble, just like the Japanese big commercial real-estate 'investments' in the late 80's.
Which ended up only hurting them when the Japan bubble burst.
The real estate they had bought stayed right here and Americans were able to buy it back at fire sale prices.
Structural economic changes lead to some people being unemployed while opportunities in new industries are developing.
Why is that hard for some to understand? (he asked rhetorically)
Thanks for your service.
Hopefully then you will get caught up in a structural economic change so you can experience the good times being had by others while you are excluded. Just promise you won't cry on this board.
When foreigners who are not here invest in real estate, we end up subsidizing it. The roads, the police and fire fighting, etc, which make the property valuable or even viable, are not paid for with property taxes but other taxes the foreign-based owner is not contributing to.
Most nations have limits or prohibitions on the amount of investing foreigners can participate in. we think it’s good because the dollars are back in the US, but it’s not great because control is no longer in the hands of someone who might have US interests in mind.
Why exchange US dollars, which maintain or increase in value, for goods which will have a precipitous decline in value over the first 2 or 3 years?
What's the difference between a foreigner and an out-of-state owner who doesn't pay other taxes where the property is?
They're an arm of the same Globalist Fascist machine that runs the democrat party.
NR takes care of what they call "perception preparation" so that people are more inclined to believe what those who are responsible for "perception management" spew.
The democrat machine saw from their surveys that people have become inclined to see the all democrat politicians since the Clinton Administration as nothing but part of a crony capitalism machine so naturally they'll be working hard to pin that label of Trump and the Republicans. Look for the trash about how Republicans have always been the party of the rich, too, in spite of the fact that the democrat party sucks up more money from corporate and wealthy donors in a quarter than the Republicans can strong arm out of donors in a year even while they're in the majority.
Articles like the one posted above are to help make the idea that Trump and the Republicans are only looking out for the corporate guys more acceptable to those who would be skeptical of or not even bother with something similar they read in an article placed with media not "known to be Conservative".
After seeing this from a "Conservative", a lot of people who would ignore something along the same lines elsewhere may read articles they'd otherwise skip and if they do, they're more inclined to not see such an article as the democrat propaganda it really is. That's also how a whole lot of Free Traitors end up with their nonsense accepted by people who should know better than to accept the idea that nothing but the "invisible hand" is at work in the deindustrialization of this country.
Never, ever, forget that special anti-Trump edition from these same folks. That's their true colors and that's the intent behind anything they print.
The out-of-state owner is at least paying federal taxes, from which grants and other aid is paid, and one can also assume that there may be some in the state where the property is located who are out-of-state owners of property in the other state.
