They are taking our pension funds and 401ks and buying up entire neighborhoods, spiking the prices and converting them into rentals. Net effect. A housing bubble that makes homes out of reach for 70% of the public.

By owning farmland, these investors can control the production of crops and ensure that they are getting the best return on their investment. Farmland offers them opportunities for long-term capital appreciation and cash flow. It can provide tax breaks and other benefits. Above all else, billionaires will always have secure access to food despite the population inflation and overwhelming food supply demands.
