A lot of fringier characters than me are saying this means that the “elites” know that “TEOTWAWKI” is just around the corner. I don’t know about that but Cameron is a noted liberal whose movie Avatar was an anti-military, anti-Capitalist screed so one would think he’d be willing to stick out the Obama years and “share the wealth” so to speak. Or maybe return to his native Canada.
Truth is a lot of investors (like Jim Rogers and Marc Faber) have been talking about farmland is the best investment in the future. Couple that with the increasing violence from Occupy Wall Street and only a fool would keep living in his mansion in city like Los Angles which is dependent on disappearing agriculture and populated with “gimmes” who are already turning the places into war zones and calling for more violence. Cameron doesn’t “know” anything – he’s just a hypocrite who doesn’t want to live in the America he helped create.
From the AP:
WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — Hollywood director James Cameron is planning to move onto a New Zealand farm.
Cameron has successfully applied to buy 1,067 hectares (2,636 acres) of farmland in New Zealand. In an application filed with the New Zealand Overseas Investment Office, Cameron says he and his family “intend to reside indefinitely in New Zealand and are acquiring the property to reside on and operate as a working farm.”
Cameron, a Canadian, directed two of Hollywood’s most successful films, “Titanic” and “Avatar.” He could not be immediately contacted by The Associated Press Thursday, but it’s believed he will move to New Zealand this year to film the sequel to “Avatar.”
The rural properties are about a 90-minute drive from Wellington, home to Weta Digital, which won an Oscar for its visual effects work on the first “Avatar” movie.
Keep this story in mind when someone tells you you’re an idiot for stocking up food. Rich liberals can buy their own farms and try to be self-reliant and everyone applauds, the common man who does is a nut.
I’ve also noticed recently that the New Zealand government is more than willing to roll over for Hollywood money.
Why didn’t he move somewhere like Sweden or Cuba? They’re the Left’s favorite models in economics…..
….isn’t New Zealand home of Trevor Loudon? The man who’s unmasking Obama? Funny he’d choose a place like that.
Outside of the fact that New Zealand has become a Hollywood lapdog in recent months it’s also almost perfectly strategically located in an end of the world scenario.
It’s about food production figures. There’s less and less farms. We’re running up on shortages.
Aus and NZ are also both very lenient on crime, especially, it seems, crimes against people.
