I wonder if they will ever get over their xenophobia. Even Biden called them out on it.
There are Korean families that have been there for 400 years and are not citizens. :unsure:

So nobody owns those houses?
Rationalia relies on voluntary donations. There is no obligation of course, but if you value this place and want to see it continue please consider making a small donation towards the forum's running costs.
Details on how to do that can be found here.
