Sorry I missed this comment. My overall logic is simple. Nationalism is good in the sense of people voluntarily wanting to buy American but not in the forced sense where government bans buying foreign products.
In free market principle, I dont agree with the tariffs and even Trump said its not ideal. He's just playing a bad hand the best he can. He has said the ideal is no tariffs on either side. Thats the free market. Trump's long term goal is for China to eliminate their tariffs so we can have free market, not raise tariffs on China forever.
Going back to banning non-US citizens from buying property...Think about it from all American sellers POV. How does it benefit THEM if the US government reduces the amount of buyers?... That will help American buyers but not American sellers. Once again, this would be government trying to control the free market and we all know how that ends.
This issue is much deeper than we can get to in a single threat but just remember that everything government does to "help" always has severe unintended consequences.
