Greendland - why not?

I'm OP. Boy, folks over here can be quite hostile for asking exchange of ideas.

Anyway, after 13 pages I think I found a handful of reasonable exchanges. A lot of the other responses were emotional visceral reactions. Calling the US as s*itshow and claiming Denmark/Europe as paradise redefined is stretching truth far out. Denmark is not in great shape, yeah maybe slightly better than France or Germany as they didn't take in as many immigrants as these others did, and so they may still be able to afford their energy and healthcare. Taking of Universal healthcare system, I shudder hearing of the horror stories coming out of Canada. It wasn't too long ago that Canada was the shining example of healthcare system that US can aspire to be.

Today I am thankful I am not at the mercy of this horror show called Canadian universal health care. I don't know about Denmark, but I hear from other friends who have family or friends in Europe elsewhere saying things aren't looking good, that the entitlements are breaking down the systems, and the flow of immigrants have caused a strain.

Anyhow, my purpose was not to go into all that, but to just discuss the merits of Greenland as a US territory from an American POV. I didn't say I support a hostile takeover or try and force US interests on Greenland. The idea is a good one, although to get there a different approach could be used, one that takes a longer timeframe and some long term strategic partnership. One that do not give away the advantages to rivals such as China. The sledgehammer approach used is a hallmark of orangaman which I believe is bound to fail. I do not think it is his original idea, as he doesn't read or can think properly, instead it was told to him and he immediately went to town with it. If we separate out this bull in china shop approach then we can see the merits of it and a way to achieve this.

Sad that you make no mention that 87 pct of Greenlanders oppose being “bought/taken over” by the USA. I guess they’re less than human to you.

Canadian here who just brought my daughter to a clinic to be diagnosed with pneumonia. Within two hours she started taking her antibiotics. No costs. I am not sure what you mean about the horrors of universal health care. I am happy that my tax dollars go towards these services, even for those less fortunate than me

I and the vast majority of Americans would jump for joy to receive Canada healthcare. It is superior to the US system at a fraction of the cost. Greenland has no value to the US. You are a loon. No American wants to take over Greenland.

When it comes to taking over Greenland, the European says why, and the American says why not.

Yeah, its good for getting Flu medication, or basic care, but if you are Canadian then you should know very well the problems with backlog for receiving care for procedures that require much more than giving out antibiotics. I have family in Canada and know first hand issues faced from backlog, simple things like getting a broken elbow fixed which we can do in US within same week can take several weeks or even months in Canada, I was shocked to hear this, and many more like this...

If you aren't talking about it then it is only shows a bias, it makes no sense to converse with an approach like that. The problems with universal healthcare in Canada and many other countries is well known and most Americans say thanks but no thanks, our system has problems for sure, although the solution isn't the horrid single payer system in Canada and else.

Now I understand why conservatives say liberalism is a disease. I'm not either, so its hard to converse with loon on both sides.

+1. So much stupidity in the OP’s second post. But at least he managed to spell Greenland correctly this time.

OP would rather have no healthcare instead of national healthcare -- LOL. I'm sure your wish will be soon in no time with this admin having to run all these other countries.

Trump, a populist, continues to do unpopular things though.

The main reason Trump wants Greenland is it’s vast untapped natural resources. They have rare earth minerals which are vital to defense technologies, batteries, smartphones, AI. These things are critical to our national defense. Less important, it is strategically positioned.
