Who would get paid for Greenland? Denmark or the residents of Denmark?


There'd be no rational reason for Denmark to do this.

Denmark has a debt to GDP ratio of 35%. The United States has a debt to GDP ratio of 104%, which explains why AZDuffman wants us to go deeper into debt.

You are confusing me with the UBI supporters on here.

Buying Greenland is like a mortgage on a house. Buying an asset. UBI is like putting a vacation trip on a credit card.

Great explanation. We need Greenland
militarily, obviously. That's all it's
good for, a military base.
If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

More than that. Lots of minerals and it gives claim on the North Pole and minerals underneath it. Greenland is small, but it would give us more claim up there.

If there is any truth to buying property, than it isn't for the minerals.

When the US wants territory now, it takes it. Just like Iraq and Libya. We'll take Venezuela for all intents and purposes, and they have large deposits of rare earths. They also have the largest oil deposits in the world.

If we wanted Greenland for another military base, to add to our other 800 military bases, then that's where we would be building one.

This is about banking. Right now the ECB has 17 trillion in negative yielding debt, this would be a bailout for their banks.

We have had opportunity for several years now to make claims on the North Pole. We haven't given it much interest, while Russia has built 4 nuclear powered ice breakers to upgrade their fleet of already nuclear powered ice breakers.

But there has been talk, about the US is in need of a deep water port to service ocean traffic going up the western side of AK. Obama was up there talking to the power brokers in the state about that while he was in office. Barr was up there recently. Everything I've seen points to Nome as the location. It makes sense geographically to build it there, and Ak. can extend it's only railroad there as well.

Russia and China have already signed deals to further trade along the northern route and toward NP. We have just sat back and while they are making moves.

This 18 year old high schooler is working in porn, and lots of people are up in arms.

I don't get it. What's the big deal? Sure, I'd be up in arms too if this was the only thing wrong in America, but it's not. We have legalized so many abnormal things in America like abortion, marijuana, gay marriage that I couldn't care less about some random chick who does porn. It's like crashing a brand new Ferrari and then complaining that about a bit of chipped paint on the door. Who the hell cares??

Note the first words she says, about doing it for the attention!

She must have missed "Hot Girls Wanted." In 3 years she will be a washed up has been working strip clubs with a kid, not a husband, and a BF she is supporting. He will hang at the strip club her entire shift instead of working. She will wonder how she got there.

OTOH, I don't care. Legal age, go for it!

Money is not really the downside for women in the porn industry. Or maybe it is because it is too easy to make it. Much like the allure of drug dealing.

Harder to want to get out of it when the next jobs you could easily get pay so much less.
You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?
