Could China/India Army be patrolling a MacMansion subdivision near you?

Never happen you say! Well this is how it will happen.

a) China and India will buy up sub prime lenders at 30 cents on the dollar, getting access to thousands of MacMansions, whole subdivisions in some cases.

b) Loopholes in immigration law, allow foreign propriety owners to get easy entry to US.

c) They sell these homes to the elite first and then the governments of China/India buy the rest of these homes with straw buyers. These buyers will trained agents to steal high tech and other industry secrets.

d) If you control most of the residences in a subdivision you control the subdivision associations. Some of which have police powers, ie foreign agents patrolling or being controlled by foreign agents.

e) Ain't American great or what?

From Wikipedia:

McMansion is a slang architectural term which first came into use in the United States during the 1980s as a pejorative description and an idiom. It describes a particular style of housing that—as its name suggests—is both large like a mansion and as culturally ubiquitous as McDonald's fast food restaurants.

In addition to ubiquity, almost every reason to poke fun at McDonald's has been applied metaphorically to "McMansions". These criticisms include the deviation from traditional local or regional architectural style, a gaudy, sterile, mass-produced appearance, and perceived negative effects on nature and neighborhoods.

3. The Asians are coming! The Asians are coming!

Can we ask the British and Canadians to buy these MacMansions to keep them out of the hands of Asians?
