> One good rule of thumb is that whenever people are blaming foreigners for their problems, they're wrong.

The current trend is that people from nations that were colonisers are the cause of, and are responsible for, the woes of descendants of colonised peoples. It's good to see that you can see through the bullshit too.

There are only select groups that can invest in property, they must reach the baseline investment sum and ongoing payback before they can play the game. Having unchecked offshore ownership is massively damaging to the local people, it raises the bar all that much more. Offshore control of property can easily be weaponised, where it's not about investment but instead about legal denial of property to the locals.

NZ suffers from some of this.
