Shrewd Bastards

First of all...
The boundary between investment and speculation is blurred.
All capital seeks profit while taking risks.
Even with farmland, it is difficult to draw a clear line between legitimate investment and illegal speculation when purchasing land in anticipation of future infrastructure expansion.
Due to rapid aging, there is already a shortage of young farmers to actually cultivate the land.
If you excessively restrict the acquisition and trading of farmland by non-farmers,
it will lead to a drop in farmland prices and decreased liquidity,
so how do you plan to handle the side effect of blocking elderly farmers nearing retirement from disposing of their assets..?
The stock market also exhibits strong speculative characteristics, such as thematic stock surges unrelated to corporate value, short-term price manipulation, and indiscriminate derivatives trading.
The Korean stock market is already world-renowned as a casino.
It is very dangerous to define the stock market as "good" investment and real estate as "evil" speculation.
When money is made in the stock market, it eventually flows back into real estate anyway.
Please stop dividing the people into a false dichotomy.
The "good guy" who invests,
and the "demon" who speculates...
That is not something the "Mortgage President" should be saying~
