new law that bans citizens of China and some other countries from purchasing property in large swaths of Florida can be enforced while being challenged in court, a federal judge ruled Thursday.
Judge Allen Winsor denied the American Civil Liberties Union’s request to block the state law as it seeks to overturn it. The group is representing Chinese citizens living in Florida.
I concede. Still, there remains a problem of houses being snatched up by corporations, able to outbid any individual, and leaving nothing to actually buy, only rent from the very corporations buying everything. Yeah, we should apply this law to “foreign entities”, as a blanket rule, but there still remains the American corporations doing the same thing.
