there is no law against Chinese people investing in American corporations except a limit of $50,000

that supposedly can easily be gotten around.

I figure, not to raise concern, google isn't going to be open about how much Chinese money is invested in U.S. corporations.

Though some alarming figures I did manage to collect are:

China produces 97% of U.S. antibiotics & 80% of pharmaceutical ingredients

Meaning, if they decided to pull out, our population would be cut off from medicines people are accustomed to.

I don't know the specifics but how I understand it -what happened: when the free trade agreement

is that under communism a manufacturer can charge

artificially low prices and just systematically cut out American manufacturers.

For example say American Standard Silverware had produced silverware for a hundred of years

though someone made an agreement with a Chinese manufacturer to buy silverware they put on the market for 1/4 the cost.

American competition simply can't compete with the artificial prices and stop manufacturing.. Once the competition is eliminated

they can charge more for their wares.

and so the entire U.S. market was undercut by people willing to do so.

Someone in China makes enough bed sheets to compete with American manufacturers and again sells them substantially cheaper

The American companies are forced out of business & in many instances, like shoes brands: will agree with a Chinese manufacturer to let them use

their name while the company just handles the distribution and advertising.

Some Ritz Carlton hotels are owned by China & GE was probably the biggest American name on the list

Remember that AMC thing where people invested in stocks to save the chain of movie theaters, turns out they are owned by China too

as well as the worlds largest pork producer plus the Chinese government owns about 384,000 acres of agricultural land in America

about as much as Jeff Bezos

Chinese investors and firms own a majority of 2400 American companies employing 114,000 people and also

10% of the market on corn and soy seeds, Syngenta is the largest manufacturer of pest asides in the world

tencent owns social media aps like snapchat they own video games like Riot gaming, they bought Legendary Entertainment that is responsible

for movies like Batman & Jurassic Park they got their start stealing software, the Chinese government turned a blind eye to them using other peoples ideas for software games and aps just making small changes to them for the Chinese market.

They developed into a monopoly of their market.

on social media in China with one ap that allows them to do everything, average users spend 4 hours a day on wechat

4.6 billion dollars of agriculture is imported to the U.S.

I assure you this is the tip of the iceberg. I spent only a few hours researching this so I'm sure there's plenty I missed

Though what's more many U.S. companies have a huge stake in China. For example Starbucks makes about 5 billion a year in China McDonalds has 2500 stores. There are 45 factories there that manufacture coca cola.

& what this means is: When it's election time, these corporations, heavily influenced by China, will spend hundreds of millions

on election campaigns intended on putting people in office that knowingly or unknowingly push the Chinese agenda on our country.

Now the world is run by conglomerates. You may think Panera and Einsteins as competitors but they along with Carabou coffee are part of one group, this is so it's easier to distribute their goods.

Pepsi is one company that owns lays Quaker, Gatorade, 7up Pizza Hut, Taco Bell & KFC

These conglomerates divy up the world amongst each other and create a reality.

So I'm saying: In theory...

The Chinese government owns everything in an economy of a billion people... They could say just print 100,000,000,000 yen and people in their government elite could just buy as many shares of American corporations as they wanted to. Once they are the majority shareholders, they can use the company for their own agenda.

In our reality: We as American citizens have to pay $1500 a month for rent grocery bills, electric, cable

& it worked... Capitalism was prevailing for the average individual, was great in the 90s a working family could own a home and cars and live comfortably.

& it's a consequence of policies meant to hurt the American people. There were cuts on education, defense spending and it's been a concentrated effort

to cut back on American liberties, provide war like conditions, until they can reach a totalitarian police state and make it like a 3rd world country. Where the common people serve an elite

like in South Africa it's a common theme, these people believe this to be a natural order.

We accept their doctrines and try to be useful to them in their world through institutions.

Some have the option to cheat and get around the quality controls that make things so difficult for everyone else.

& this is accepted as reality.

We accept it as our reality because we have forgotten how to make do for ourselves...

We want their acceptance.

The elite have made a system where they pay a private chef to cook whatever they may have a whim for. The next step down has restaurants they can go to and the system works. Through free enterprise foodies have made an excellent culinary standard through private enterprise.

Though that doesn't mean it's the best way.

On the bottom of the ladder: They load up our food with preservatives and ship it across country and pay the grocery store for a place amongst shelving.

So I as an individual can go to my local market and buy a loaf of bread and some frozen dinners.

It's the convenience of the matter.

Though to me it'd make more sense if instead of everyone cooking individual meals for themselves..

I beieve the next natural step would be to economize on the waste in our economy.

Lets say If 10 people would cook breakfast lunch and dinner buffet for 300 people. This duty was assigned to everyone once a month you have to cook.

Think how much time could be saved.. The savings if the food was bought in bulk and just shipped to the kitchen once or even produced locally

Instead of every individual having to go to the grocery store, or someone delivering their individual groceries and an hour a day cooking for themselves

Communal living to save costs and promote the well being of the community and save a lot of unnecessary steps. I feel that is how we compete with foreign nations.

Eliminating the middle man and taking upon ourselves the means of production. There's only so much we can do.

Though the world looks to America for entertainment. Since the machines can do manual labor now and AI can do the majority of desk work.

I think the next logical step is information and entertainment.

What if these new colonies would promote movies and music and people who make a living on the internet.

Instead of multinational companies like Adidas an Nike making billions, what if we supported the creative efforts of thousands of Americans.

So we have something to work towards.

Because currently, people are so frustrated the evil policies of the republicans and democrats have us not knowing who to hate and blame our frustrations on.

A civil war, would be the perfect thing for China and fascism to sweep America.

I feel we're just blindly being setup for failure on both sides

& it's up to us to institute something better...

I'm hoping that by this Spring, millions of dollars will go into the economy just from people being creative making videos and music on social media by selling products and making names for thousands of independent artists.
