Default Price for Greenland?

How much would you be willing to pay Denmark for Greenland?

I gave you 5 stars for creating a poll that will probably erupt into a political thread. Well done!

My answer would have been tree fitty though.

Buying Greenland is akin to Indecent Proposal

Greenland and Denmark are married. The idea that we can pay the Danes to bang their wife is grotesque at best.

Of course, this is simply the outward expression of the immoral behavior condoned by certain people in power that believe the r*pe & pillage of the world is to be done at their whim with either force or check...

I like Danish Shortbread too much to take a chance on losing that important resource.

It's a no for me.

When the world is three countries, everyone will be content. Look how well it went for the Roman Empire.

How it fell? AI slop says:

The Roman Empire fell due to a complex mix of factors, primarily including barbarian invasions (Goths, Vandals), crippling economic troubles (overspending, inflation, heavy taxes), political instability (corruption, weak emperors, civil wars), military overstretch, and internal societal changes like the rise of Christianity and population decline.

+1 for the A.I. slop. Manna from heaven for the ADD-afflicted.

Trade the states that voted blue, they don't want to be here anyway. I wish it was Iceland instead, that way we get Bjork in the deal, I like her she's kooky.

Wouldn’t it make more sense just to take Bjork?

If it is willingly being sold without pressure/force and it would be an amicable deal, I would want us to buy it. As for the price, I wouldn’t mind the US spending more than a trillion for the land. We are at $38.5 trillion in debt already, what’s another few trillion? At least we will have something to show for it.

I paid about $10 at my local Regal when it came out, no interest in seeing part two this weekend. Felt like it was a good open and shut story, no need for a sequel.

Believe? There is one in particular who acted on it at least once.
