You say that as if any of that should be desirable instead of cause for immediate suspicion and scorn. Foreign investment means foreign influence, which means decisions made without the interests of the people as the first and only consideration.
Groups are meant to make alliances with groups that are close to them, geographically, ideologically, morally, and racially. How can alliances be formed with people who share zero commonality or shared goals? Answer: they can't. And, any leader who profanes otherwise is, as you said, a traitor to his people, often working toward his own monetary interests, to the detriment of the people he rules, a people he obviously hates, whether it be expressly stated or not.
Okay, but you need to understand that literally every major city in the US and all US states court some amount of foreign investment. They've typically done this for hundreds of years.
If you don't like it, cool. And feel free to advocate a changing of the law and policy, but this shouldn't be a surprise to you, and nobody thinks it's treason IRL. And in a Steelman position of this, the foreign investment does have the potential to actually benefit the people of the state.
That's a problem that needs to be corrected then. Just because everyone is jumping off that bridge doesn't mean you get to peer pressure me into doing it. I'm gonna turn around and tell you that you're fucking retarded.
Like I said, that's fine, but don't act all crazy about it.
