Lilred's Rant of the Week: The Commonwealth

[skeet]

Lilred...take it from a died in the wool eastern shore of Maryland person. After you've seen enough of the place you grew up destroyed for simple greed you'll be ready to move. I Am. My family has lived within 10 miles of where I live since the late 1600's. A few days ago I had a family in to look at my property and they were from China for god's sake. The PRC..communist China. I don't want to sell to them..not because they are Chinese..but they aren't even citizens..but according to the law if they offer I have to sell if they meet my price etc. The realtor said the man stated he was going to make a full price(cash) offer on the place. Doesn't seem right...selling a piece of America to a foreigner. I've already turned down a couple of offers from developers...because I don't want the land turned into a housing development. Caught 'tween a rock and a hard place.... All them people tying to get away from the city...and bringing it with 'em Oh well.
