以下是copy-paste來的一個評論, 不代表本迷觀點。期待法律磚家考證真偽。 本迷在美國近四十年,從來沒有受到過種族歧視,也不相信可見的將來會體驗到。

看到老中圈突然開始炒德州準備通過新法不讓老中綠卡/H1B買房,俺又要笑尿了…… 又一次典型的沒搞清狀況的無(帶)厘(節)頭(奏)拉流(仇)量(恨)
法律上Real Property和老中愛買的房子Real Estate壓根不回事:
“Real property” refers not only to the real estate and land you've purchased but it also includes any rights that are attached to that property. Real property is what gives you the right to own, lease, sell and use the property in any way you deem fit.
“Real estate” refers to the land and all of the manmade improvements attached to the land and the term real property refers additionally to the rights associated with the ownership such as use and possession.
舉個例子比較好懂:
我們普通人買的房子隻能算Real Estate,不能算Real Property,因為隻能做居住用途,不能拆了做成別的譬如瞭望塔,否則政府有權強製你拆了
但如果你買的是Real Property,譬如一大塊農場,就不一樣了,你依法擁有各種改造權利,譬如裏麵修個鐵路,加個瞭望塔之類的,政府一般管不著。
再看看這個法案的起因:
“The legislature acted after a Chinese billionaire and former Chinese People’s Liberation Army general bought over 130,000 acres of land just miles from Laughlin Air Force base in Val Verde County, the largest air force pilot training base in the U.S.”
再對比一下,你美國人去中國軍事基地附近買塊大地(Real Property)看看啥後果
”By comparison, as an American, go try to buy land near a Chinese military base and see how it works out for you. It would never happen there and it shouldn't happen here.”
德州州長沒瘋,德州議員們也沒瘋。如果你覺得他們瘋了,最好先想想自己是不是哪裏不對勁
