Do the proud Veterans of the USA know their county is for sale?

Question

The ruling Bush family ultimately faced up to the fact that the U.S. is for sale, and foreigners are buying. It's everything from the St.-Tropez crowd buying up condos in Palm Beach, Fla., to Asian and Middle Eastern governments sinking billions into U.S. banks to Europeans taking over U.S. pharmaceutical and infrastructure companies. Even tourists are busy using their euros and pounds to snap up iPhones, jeans, shoes and everything else they can stuff into the empty suitcases they carry along for just that purpose, d**n them.

The weak dollar and our weakening economy are underwriting the great American yard sale. Investors from Dubai are behind the June 09 purchase of the General Motors corporation. Soon all of America will be sold.

Answer 1

That's why we'll all have to move to the moon and witness the birth of a new America.

Answer 2

I am a proud vet because I served.

You sure so clueless on what is going on.. We re losing the foreign battle financially because the Democrats want to tax the c**p out of American businesses!  They end up selling to foreign companies  to get out of the taxation.  Perhaps the Democrats  need to look in the mirror and say, instead of helping the poor we are sending their jobs overseas.

Answer 3

Burdon of a capitalistic market is anyone is eligable to play. However people buying these thing are still subject to the laws and beliefs of this nations government. so they can buy all the land and the junk they want, they are just giving us money. What we need to do is stop exporting businesses. believe it or not if the world is ever brought together, it will be corperations that will do it. definatley not the way we all wanted it to happen.

Answer 4

i am sure there is some truth to that to what extent is hard to tell but like the first person said its our fault and if McCain gets in office there is no stopping this from continuing.

Answer 5

It's called capitalism. Much of China's resources are owned by the US.

And what's up with

"Even tourists are busy using their euros and pounds to snap up iPhones, jeans, shoes and everything else they can stuff into the empty suitcases they carry along for just that purpose, d**n them."

You're contradicting your self by saying Europeans are purchasing American products.

Take a step back. Foreign countries put a lot into the US and the US puts a lot into foreign countries. It's how our system works and as long a the country shares our beliefs in civil liberties and freedoms there shouldn't be any thing wrong with them.

And your forgetting that no other country will ever have as much business as we do in one sector. Military power. America's military spending is astronomical compared even to other rich, powerful, countries. They depend on us too. NATO and the western European front relied vastly on the strength of the US military. We sell planes, tanks, guns, ammo, hummves, armor, helicopter and every thing in between to our allies. Allies' military operations borrow resources from us too. Maybe that should give you something to think about.

Who's with me...."usa, usa, usa, usa!"

Answer 6

That's what coups are for, my civilian friend.

Answer 7

What?

Answer 8

ouchh. seriously, whats your deal? nothing personal, but your being super harsh. no matter what happens to the US, don't you think that you should support our troops and give them credit for putting up with comments like yours? while the troops are overseas, your sitting on your butt *****!ng at your computer. okay, i get your point. the american dollar is becoming pretty useless. great. was it really necessary to bring the troops into this? its not like they dont know about the problem. my cousin is out there. yeah. hes overseas fighting for your rights. its not like they are disconnected from the rest of the world! sorry for being so rude. just sayin what needs to be said.

Answer 9

The US has been "for sale" for a very long time! It is nothing new and yes, it is a dangerous trend.

Answer 10

yes..and it makes me madder than h**l because in the end it is our fault..ALL of us..!

Answer 11

....your  question is very aggressive

....it seems you have no desire to participate in the USA sysem any longer

....if you do want ot stay in the USA, please think of postive ways to present our attention in an objective manner

....military service is very valuable here at home

....so, if you don't mind

....please go give a russian a b....job, ok? and shut the pie ho!

....you got nothing new, except your exasperated fear and loathing

...BTW...good riddance to GM....most American car makers have long since sought to become the world's worst, that is  not new information

....I am glad GM finally got out of that group

Answer 12

This once proud vet knows that this country has a sold sign on it. Clinton administration sold to the same countries as Bush does. Pointing fingers is not helping. What are we going to do about it?

Answer 13

I don't know if veterans are aware or many of Americans are. Mass Media usually tries to keep things like that on that on a low. This is the outcome when you give power to corporations that are fueled by money and profits. After a while it will become America Incorporated not The United States of America and the flag will be the logo for all its products.

Answer 14

And this is news how?  Everyone has a price, dont think for a second it's just Americans.  

Answer 15

Do you realize the weak dollar makes our products more desirable.  The strong Euro is causing Europe to lose business.  This is a pendulum that swings back and forth all the time.
