US Elections (& Politics) :)

Better would be not allowing China to keep buying land and only allow American Citizens to buy land.
And most of it is farm land, from what I hear. I wonder what they have up their sleeve?
Who gives a rat's butt....quit selling to any and all non- American citizens!
We're 1 of very few nations that allow non-nationals to purchase and own real estate.
 

Actually, this is just a game to keep house prices high .. think of who gets a slice of this game. This really is not unlike what the CCP is attempting to do in China to keep their housing bubble from a complete collapse.
 
You only get the money if you vote me in. Quid Pro Quo.

Same with hiring Illegals to mow our lawns and do craftsman work. I got on to one of our family members sounding the horn about Illegals yet they hire them.

I lived in N.CA from '74 to '04 and there was a law that prohibited you from hiring them if the work exceeded a dollar amount and you were supposed to hire a licensed contractor. I forget that dollar amount and the subsequent fine if you were caught but as I recall the fine was less than the money you'd save by hiring several Mexicans to lay brick or tile, do cement work, yard work, etc. Some were likely green card, some born here, but many were likely illegal. It didn't appear to be an issue with those that had work for them to do....and most of then did very good work.

As I recall the licensed contractors lobbied the CA legislature to enact the law but like all laws it has no teeth if not enforced. I also don't recall LEO doing much to roust the dozen or so that would be standing around the Home Depot entrance driveway.

They likely had bigger issues to deal with at the time and I can understand that....like actual robberies, carjacking, rapes and murders.

I don't know, it is a very zoomed in pic. Light Gray or Tan shorts, the pic shows, yes hair looks a bit dark, but cell phone zoomed in pics are the worse...Hair length is about the same...and if you see the back of the shirt looks like a similar print.

I worked for a cable company in my late teens/early twenties, believe it or not, I was made foreman, driving a van around with about a dozen Mexicans digging trenches to bury underground coax cable. On our first dig at lunch time, several came to me handing me money, I pushed back the money, apparently the foreman(s) before me were extorting money from these guys. No one ever told me they were Illegals but none spoke English and I would see different workers a lot and I was the only Dig Crew.

Anyway, they worked Hard, very Hard...no standing around. I have found this to be the case over the many years I have worked with them, around them in various jobs...
Have to share, I was not one to point them to a dig area and sit in the Van, I was young, had energy, anyway, I challenged one about my age to a Dig-Off :rofl: Not only did he dig twice as far as me, he also dug twice as deep too, lol
What was sad is several would skip lunch, not having brought their own lunch like others, I often would go buy their lunch. This was the early 80s, if Immigration was a problem, I did not know about...
