Because they are part of the conspiracy to create the new boogie man to fight against. Russia went by the wayside. They need a new adversary so that we spend trillions more on unnecessary military junk, wars, bases, AND SURVEILLANCE.They actually allowed this article to be published in "Newsweak"?
Yeah, it is much better to negotiate from a position of weakness than a position of strength.Because they are part of the conspiracy to create the new boogie man to fight against.

They are attacking on more fronts than we can track.It's not just that, it's wind farms throughout the country that have com links back to the ChiComs. They've been trying to build them in our training airspace and by our air defense bases. It's every ChiCom built UAV that people buy that phones home every time they fly with high resolution video images of where they are...the cheapest most high res surveillance images you can buy (or have us pay for). Students in our universities that siphon off our intellectual knowledge and a host of other ways that they are trying to undermine the free world.
Yeah, they are trying to buy us as a way to enslave us and rule the world.
The ChiComs are our enemies and we do ourselves a disservice to forget that in every dealing with a current Chinese entity who are all wholly owned by the ChiCom party.
Why we would allow any foreign entity to purchase land in the US is beyond me. It should be illegal. Period.
A checkbook filled by sending junk trinkets to the US in exchange for the dollars they fill it with.And China simply shows up with their checkbook and buys up the farm.
How do you solve the issue of Smithfield exporting meat to China when there is a shortage here?I suppose because you can't take it back home with you and there are multiple ways to reclaim it if it becomes problematic. Do we want to turn away foreign companies that build factories here, provide jobs here, etc? Probably not. Then you have questions like is "Honda USA LLC" a foreign entity? For that matter, is a Dodge factory a foreign entity now since a European company owns the brand? What about foreign companies with major US investors?
I'm not saying it couldn't be overcame, but I think you'd just create more beaucracy, incentive for corruption, and not solve the issue. The simpler answer remains let them buy, let the invest, then use sanctions to reclaim the land if they become problematic.
100% this...I’ve stopped buying Smithfield products intentionally and have toyed with the idea of making my own warning signs to hang up next to their products at Kroger...but I might get embarrassed being kicked out of a supermarket.How do you solve the issue of Smithfield exporting meat to China when there is a shortage here?
A shortage and high prices are not the end of the world (yet).How do you solve the issue of Smithfield exporting meat to China when there is a shortage here?
Just like the senate will save us.A shortage and high prices are not the end of the world (yet).
When the right people with power and their families start starving the outgoing overseas shipments will stop, regardless of whose name is on the property title.
Food is Power.
Negotiate what exactly?Yeah, it is much better to negotiate from a position of weakness than a position of strength.
If it is in the USA then what are you worried about. Do you think China is going to move the farm land to China? Are they going to pack up the processing plants and move them?So you think it good that china owns all that and processing as well?
This is not so much the case anymore....But in the Democrats never ending lust for tax money and their zeal to Tax the Rich they have made it impossible to pass on the family farm because of the Estate (death) Taxes. Now when Farmer Dad dies there is Estate Tax due to the IRS and since all the value is in the farmland there is no money available to write the big check. So the kids have to sell off acres of the farmland to be able to pay off the government...
