The solution is to ban foreign ownership and anything that is foreign owned needs to be sold within 12 months or it becomes property of the state.

Workaround : a company bought it, Investors are in another couple of offshore company, no names.

This game has been played by money Laundering folks a d foreign investment companies, sounds good as a headline but putting it in practice is way harder.

No corporation should be able to possess a single-family home. It’s pretty easy to tell when something’s a shell company for a foreign owner. Just do it. The government needs to get off it’s fucking ass

I don't think anyone disagrees, you're just about 35 years too late.

When corporations were starting to claim "rights" as a person would in the early 90s, many people objected loudly. Money is louder.

I’m not about 35 years too late. I’m saying we take it and if they have a Problem… They can go to a court and get rejected. And if the court doesn’t reject them, break the legs of the court. Do it French style.

Of course, that won’t happen… Whatever the States are doing as well should be expected in about five or 10 years.

The legal mechanism to do this already exists.
