Heaven forfend they should spend it on stuff on LB's list, like paying for new stuff to be created. That's for the aspiring working classes, isn't it?<br /><br />LB, correct and agreed.Mark Wadsworthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07733511175178098449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141932539860553199.post-56937858183890803252015-02-05T19:57:10.827+00:002015-02-05T19:57:10.827+00:00Some sense needs to be smacked into anyone who say...Some sense needs to be smacked into anyone who says that we need overseas buyers to invest in residential real estate. If they are truly overseas and they are "investing," they are not using their money to live there and be productive laborers; they are parking their cash into land expecting gains.<br /><br />Given that, it's obvious that no real investing is going on. No one needs to pay for land in London, New York, or anywhere for it to exist, so it isn't true investing. True investing means using money to fund payrolls, purchasing new buildings and equipment, and paying for upkeep of existing buildings and equipment. Buying real estate and doing nothing with it does none of that; it's pure speculative rent-seeking.Logan Boettcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10496579806563196233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141932539860553199.post-7661052105324806852015-02-05T15:24:30.129+00:002015-02-05T15:24:30.129+00:00That last paragraph about 'other asset classes...That last paragraph about 'other asset classes' tells you all you need to know about the economic ignorance of the author.
