Comment on It turns out Saudi Arabia will own 93.4 percent of EA if the buyout goes through, which is effectively all of it
What exactly about it is it you feel should be illegal?
Foreign country buying a US corporation.
US companies by foreign companies all the time, look at the food and drink corporations.
This is not a new or strange thing
It’s definitely not new, but it’s time to start thinking about how strange it is, and start pulling these assholes off their money-merry-go-round.
It’s a world economy. What are you, some sort of maga twit America first and only bullshit?
US Steel is now a Japanese company
Except many foreign countries have stricter legal frameworks for corporations.
The “corporations are people” legal fiction means they have rights here. Citizen’s United has fucked this country in profoundly dumb ways.
I’d think we’d be far more concerned about critical resource companies before we got to worrying about gaming companies, but we can’t even do that so I’m not surprised.
