My wife is Filipino and reacquired her Filipino citizenship. Filipinos seem to assimilate better than some other peoples, but I'd be ok with dual citizens losing their right to vote.
A problem arises because the US government doesn't actually recognize dual citizenship on an official basis, and in the case of people who reacquire their original citizenships, and often the USA has no records of a person's dual citizenship.
There must have been some incentive for the dual Jewish / USA citizens to report the fact, maybe its to seal in the other jews to vote for each other.
Maybe it is an escape plan so they have both passports. My wife has only a valid US Passport, but could get a new Philippines passport if she desired it.
Not all Filipinos bother to get dual citizenship, it allows them to vote, hold more land, and work some jobs, not all.
There was a link I had that showed the expansion of Islamic organizations and institutions by year by country. Don’t see it right now, but it spreads quickly once established.
Not all foreigners come here broke, and I think even illegals can fudge into ownership. In Florida a common scam is Foreigners buying a fancy house or even multiple houses for cash or mortgage. They rent these upscale houses filling every room with high dollar people. They provide amenities to include maid service storage space in the garage, landscape maint. and more. Very attractive to live like that at a low cost point if you don't mind sharing a house.
Note: There are also people who own the properties as airbnb for tourism.
Yeah, I found that to be a nifty way to bring investors in.
In the Philippines they have an Investment Visa in certain development zone(s) There are 2 different versions both with 75K investment requirements, but one has cheap fees and the other huge fees. The Cheaper one can happen within as little as 5 days. The more expensive fee visa 1-2 months processing time
Talked to a Turkish national who was here. He said the same thing. I thought it was strange why he would say that. Back then, I was saying, if they have money and want to buy our land, let them because we can collect taxes. Well, we never see a dime, it goes to some deep pockets.
This seems odd. Why did it take so long? Why the open borders? They made a bill banning cartoon depictions like anime, while they are being overrun by illegals, Muslims, and democrats. Black representatives from the big cities of Dallas and Houston, and RINOs from across the state, seem hellbent on destroying Texas. It already looks overrun.
They already did this in FL. We bought a few more points at our timeshare resort this week in Fl and had to sign a sheet that we were not from the same countries mentioned above.
This is awesome. I know quite a few nations thst do not let foreign citizens do business or buy land or property. It's absolutely idiotic that the usa let's this happen. Especially letting China buy up our land is horrible.
I have been saying that a long time ago in the 80. I said if you open up the market to China, pretty soon they will take over and take your land. Back then, some of the people said, "No no, one jet from Boeing equals 100,000 soy sauce."
Lets hope that it is contagious and that it has gain of function to spread to other states.
There's only a handful of countries that Allow Americans and often people from other countries as well. to buy land.
Take the Philippines, you can NOT own land, but you can own a condo as long as the complex is 60% Filipino owned.
You can lease land, but often the Filipinos will snake out of the lease once you improve it.
You can inherit ownership of property if your Filipino dies and has no other family to lay claim. You then would be required to sell it.
Same thing with business, you can only own 40% and wouldn't be allowed to work there in most situations.
There is no benefits for Americans in foreign ownership.
The reason most countries ban property ownership by foreigners is because they would buy up all the prime land.
Barbados allows foreigners to buy land quite easily. Back in the slavery days the plantation owners allowed the slaves to own beach land since it wasn't suitable crop land. In modern times rich people swoop in and buy out multiple beach lots to build McMansions on.
How about Muslims Abbott ?
Now do dual-citizenship.
Wouldn’t that be awesome ! Man that would shake up some demons !

Go to google maps.
Search “masjid”, then “mosque”
Note how many masjids are in even small towns.
And it's not just Texas.

You know I’ve done this a few months and yes was shocked , I live in San Diego so I know how many are here and it’s really unbelievable.
Iran. That's Muslims.
I’m concerned about the Muslim city they are building in Texas.
Me too. I think it's been shut down. Trump's DOJ is looking into it also.
Honestly it should only be us citizens or legal immigrants.
You don't know this yet maybe. There's quite a few airbnb in the west coast where it's funded by China and run thru legal citizens.

I know about the investors travel visa. You are correct on that. They come as investors.
Trump's new 5 Million Dollar fee Visa, drawing swarms.
Gold card. Yes.

Cheaper one is faster? How strange.
How bout any foreign national? I don't care what country they are from. American land is for Americans.

One baby step at a time.
Why not all foreign countries?
I was wondering that myself.
They already did this in FL. We bought a few more points at our timeshare resort this week in Fl and had to sign a sheet that we were not from the same countries mentioned above.
Oh. I didn't know. Good for Florida.
Trade announcement 30 day pause on China Tariffs means it is a good time to sell those Chinese manufacturers.
LOL. Smart.
Abbott is really shitty. He needs to go. Way too much bad history
He is struggling...

Well, now we see.
Great. Now do India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Somalia, Ethiopia, Turkey, Armenia. I could keep going but I think you get the picture.
How about land are for U.S citizens only.
He should probably include Californians in that ban.
Howls. Yes. Yes.
No one owns land in Texas.
If you pay property tax, you don't own land.
You mean no one owns land anywhere in U.S, right?
I wasn't sure if every state had property taxes.
I checked. Some don't have state income tax but property tax, yes.

Yes. I sure hope it spreads.
Like Kamala's legs...
LOL
