    Slap:

    That story is a little breathless, the implication being the thousands of Chinamen are going to be establishing an enclave in Idaho, sort of the Shanghai legations reversed. I'll believe it when I see it. If the Chinese want to build businesses and facilities in Idaho, essentially giving us money, let 'em at it. The Idahos won't care who signs the paycheck as long as it doesn't bounce.

    The story also contains this quote:

    "The borrower is always the servant of the lender, and now China is buying up America."

    That is true unless you get into really big money, then the situation is reversed. Or so says Donald Trump.
