keeping fuel/lube from freezing is a constant battle








Total population of Greenland: 56,542. If we gave every Greenlander $200,000, that $12 Billion.
Offer them 50 billion dollars (a pimple on our budget) if they agree to become a US territory, like Guam. No Political issues, like 2 new Senators and a house seat, that would be required from statehood. The territorial governor is locally elected. Every citizen gets $200K, the rest into Greenland's coffers, with a proviso that another $12 Billion goes into a non-taxable retiree fund for all Citizens. That still leaves $25B for them to spend on......whatever.

How the fuck did we go from riding the ass of any Russian or Chinese plane or boat that got too close to Norway or the Philipines... to actually DEBATING whether we should totally be in charge of North America?
Whether or not somebody is hyperinterventionist or isolationist or moderate, completely controlling North America and preventing any foreign power from establishing so much as an igloo here is a no fucking brainer.
