There's an interesting history there that I was largely ignorant of:More:Since 1867, the United States has considered, or made, several proposals to purchase the island of Greenland from Denmark, as it did with the Danish West Indies in 1917. While Greenland remains an autonomous territory within the Kingdom of Denmark, a 1951 treaty gives the United States much control over an island it once partially claimed from exploration.

I've heard that Denmark is now offering to buy the U.S.
My choice of third person pronouns for myself is generally irrelevant. I'm not typically involved in the conversations that use them. It's other people referring to me in the third person, usually from a distance. I'm not a conversational partner in those exchanges. Those people could be referring to me as "That A$$hole" or "That Motherfukker" for all I know.
If they fail to develop their country, at least sell it to people that will.
I just want objectivity on this forum and will point out flawed sources or points of view at my leisure.

Whatever happened to that libertarian philosophy of letting the people living there decide what to do with it? Has anyone asked the Greenlanders what they want to do? The Inuit Ataqatigiit party came into power in 2021 and are independence-minded. However, the people of Greenland are rather left-leaning, particularly environmentally, so I suspect they won't be too accommodating to outside influences wanting to exploit their resources.

I'm sure that the Greenlanders, being Danish citizens, would jump at the chance of exchanging the most popular socialist system in the world for the free-market slave jungle of the US.
Take a good look at a rural Alaska village to see what a "freedom" economy has in store.
In all fairness, most Danes already speak English and have better literacy than the average boobus here.
That's not libertarian philosophy at all. It's socialist or third way (not left or right), but it's certainly not capitalist, free-market democracy.
In a capitalist, free-market system, money rules. Libertarians are activists for the rights of corporations and offshore bank accounts.
Those with the most money and power have issued so much money to themselves and their cabal that they RAN OUT of places to own. The only places they don't own are the few remaining independent states (made into enemies of the USA), or restricted areas, like Antarctica and tiny segments of unsettled areas, protected areas. You know, Western Sahara was one, they scored it recently. Greenland, although technically still part of the Danish Crown (remnant of Christian monarchist age), was granted indigenous rule, for its own matters, by the Crown. Still, it's the crown's decision on what to do wth Greenland.
For centuries, non-Christian capital and communism waged revolution and regime change against the Catholic and Protestant kingdoms. Sometimes by force, sometimes by growth of power and influence. We're in the late stage now. So, if you're a lib, ("classical liberal"), you don't stand for "man on the land" rights, you don't give two hoots about some scrotty tribes and their folk tales. Unless they are one of you. A rare exception. So, be consistent. Be a libertarian and let them buy Greenland or force their way in militarily or otherwise with the mammon power and the boss mode. Fountainhead.

Ron PaulThere is nothing to fear from globalism, free trade and a single worldwide currency, but a globalism where free trade is competitively subsidized by each nation, a continuous trade war is dictated by the WTO, and the single currency is pure fiat, fear is justified. That type of globalism is destined to collapse into economic despair, inflationism and protectionism and managed by resurgent militant nationalism.

Don't you remember? That was a major issue during the election. It's what everyone based their vote on. It's an election "mandate". We have always wanted a greater United States of North America.Trump wants to annex Canada, Greenland, and Gulf of Mexico

I know what you're thinking of, but they are actually very, very different.
Teddy was a real lover of the wilderness and started our national parks and federal land protection that is increasingly
under pressure by predatory corporations and billionaires like Trump who need new planets just to spend their money.
The oil that is bigger than Saudi Arabia's in the Arctic Naitonal Wildlife REFUGE got NO BIDS today.

Trump is a representative of the corporate state with corporate state and financial elite allegiances.
I strongly urge Greenlanders and Norwegians to bond together and reject the plans to militarize and steal their resources
and the last places on Earth that are spared from our destruction and the avaricious wants of mentally-deranged plutocrats.

Does anyone remember that guy who foresaw the assassination attempt right down to which ear??? He also said Trump would win the Presidency. And then unify the currency of the US, Mexico and Canada... After a great economic crash.

Authoritarian turns out to be expansionist. Libertarians astonished. Nobody could have foreseen this. "Its worth it as long as little girls are being inspected before using the bathroom, women should always carry state ID" Says Outspoken member of libertarian forum.
In New Zealand:
The Coastguard is a Charity
Air Traffic Control is a private company run on user fees
The DMV is a private non-profit
Rescue helicopters and ambulances are operated by charities and are plastered with corporate logos
The agriculture industry has zero subsidies
5% of the national vote, gets you 5 seats in Parliament
A tax return has 4 fields
Business licenses aren't a thing
Prostitution is legal
We have a constitutional right to refuse any type of medical care
There is some potential strategic reasoning behind trying to acquire a place such as Greenland as a territory. Keep in mind, China is going across swaths of the middle east, Africa, and South America now buying their influence. If China "gets" to Greenland first in some capacity, the potential minerals there will go to them.
China, contrary to what many bone-headed libertarians believe, is a nemesis to liberty just as the U.S. regime is. China is not to be trusted anymore than the U.S. regime is, however, we live in the U.S. so it bears to be a better thing for it to be in our sphere of influence.
I also think Trump is just talking out of his ass, as usual. I don't think he genuinely intends to pursue these things in sincerity. And here's a great reason adding them as "states" would be the worst idea ever:

Welcome to the R3VOLUTION!
Do people actually think he's going to actually succeed in annexing Canada?
