[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]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.[/quote]

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