    Ah okay so private land ownership but all it takes is the slightest bit of corruption to ‘lease’ a plot of land for free, for essentially forever. Because that’s what 999 years essentially is.

    We already have these systems with Water tables, and we can already see the problems.

    Saudi Arabia is running the Arizona water tables dry because some shit agreed to ‘lease’ them unlimited water usage. They did this for the price of less than a smart phone in today’s dollars.

      I want this to be fixed by not allowing non citizens to own american soil. It doesnt make sense to me to allow non us citizens to buy up land in america.

      Like why cant the Saudis just buy hay from arizonans this transfering monies into local economies?
