Moneytree you are either very young or very old - but which ever the case maybe you are very wrong and I think both short sighted and unfortunately mean spirited. 'Foreigners' are not buying up our realestate but they are buying up our companies and this is because we have a small population which is u does not have the capital to compete with international companies. Hence, due to dividends and capital returning overseas our trade deficit is ballooning leading us vulnerable to a depreciating dollar. Welfare assists to keep this nation stable and it is because they did not tax the baby boomers enough and thus allowing them to hold huge levels of investment properties that your children will not be able to afford one.
