  2. They tried. Many times. One example, They built a corn processing plant, and then the govt forced them to close down because it was near a military base. These people have been operating in the area for years, with no problem. Then . . . Another example, they built an auto glass factory. The case was so bad, the story was made into a feature film.

  3.  @mudshovel289  I respect the US's decisions. It is your country. But don't double-talk. If you believe a Chinese company is the same as Chinese govt, that's too bad. There are military bases everywhere in the US. Hey, it's your choice. I just feel bad for the company because they were given the go ahead to invest in the processing plant. They spent the money, then were told to get lost. They want to create jobs in the US. They could have shipped the corn to China for processing. At any rate, it's your life. You make the call.

  4.  @mudshovel289  How much US land does the Chinese interest own? According to Ralph Norman, United States Representative, from his US Government website Aug 17, 2022, China owns and controls almost 192,000 acres of farmland right here in the United States. To be clear, it's not a huge percentage of our total farm acreage by any stretch. According to the FDA, there are more than 35 million acres of farmland in the U.S. which are owned by foreign investors. From AgWeb "Rounding out the top five are the Netherlands at 12%, Italy at 6%, the United Kingdom at 6% and Germany at 5%. Together, citizens in those countries hold 13 million acres, or 29%, of the foreign-held acres in the U.S. China owns less than 1%, or 349,442 acres."
