While I fully understand Danish pride passing off their problem child
island to someone else wouldn't be all that bad.

What problem is it to Denmark?

Unless someone finds worthwhile mineral resources and finds a way to
exploit them it's a massive drain on the economy.

It's less than $1bn 0.2% of Denmarks GDP

There is also grumbling
among the natives about independence although I have no idea how they
would make a go of it.

No, there isn't.

There's a reason the Norse packed up their boats and left. Denmark is
touchy since they've lost territory since Kalamr and there isn't much
left.

Right, who told you that?
More Trumpian propaganda?

Trump is for sale to the highest bidder, that's all. He has no
principles ideals or morals.
In this he is similar to the Democrats.
The main difference is that in the scale of useful idiots, he has proved
the most useful and the most idiotic.

Oh well. He will die soon.

The question is what shit are you reading? Townhall with Bauer explaining
how great Israel is? He may be biased since he lives in Jerusalem. Try lewrockwell.com for a change. I don't agree with some of their stuff but
they haven't drank the Kool-Aid.

Yup. Agree with that.

It was simply a way to ensure global trade.

He was not original. Adam Smith did it better:

"To found a great empire for the sole purpose of raising up a people of customers may at first sight appear a project fit only for a nation of shopkeepers. It is, however, a project altogether unfit for a nation of shopkeepers; but extremely fit for a nation whose government is influenced

Precisely. Greenland is a welfare state kept alive by people working for
the government. I think the do export some halibut.

More Trumpian propaganda?

iirc, the Danes once ruled a large part of your island. They may have
improved the gene pool but they lost the territory. Kalmar under Margaret
I included Denmark, Sweden, Norway, a bit of Finland, Iceland, Greenland,
the Faroes, Shetland, and some of Orkney.

I think Iceland was the last to go when it slipped away when the Danes
were otherwise occupied in WWII. They did get Northern Schleswig back
after the war. They probably would have liked more but considering the invasion by Germany was concluded during business hours they were
concerned that Germany would rise again and be pissed off.

That's not Trump propaganda. I've nothing against Denmark. If fact I like their approach to migrants. 'Sweden is that way; keep walking'. However
over the centuries their holdings have been whittled down. The US has had
the use of Greenland but otherwise nobody really wanted it until Trump
started his bluster. With him separating the bullshit from the pepper
isn't possible.

Germany now licks Xi's ass.

And it's only getting worse - fast.

This 'fuel crisis' - for SURE they are going
to clear the way to bring in zillions of
Chinese EV/Spy/Sabotaged vehicles. Then they
will have to upgrade the whole power grid ...
betcha China will provide their "solutions".

German 'industry' will soon be back to beer
and wienerschnitzel, until Xi drops the
hammer ...... so much for the "Powerhouse
of Europe".

Hmm ... seen a few here try to blame all the UKs
problems on Blair. Sorry, but the Big Decline was
well underway before then. "WE DEMAND OUR FREE
STUFF !!!" drove govt and economy for many decades.
"Being Strong and Self-Sufficient" got its balls
cut off at some tranny clinic.

News today - the govt has AGAIN agreed to give
doctors and such big wage/perk hikes - more Free
Money. Thing is, the UK doesn't *have* any more
money, free or otherwise. They've let their
industries and mindsets and possibilities ROT.

SO sad.

But hey ... the UK still has lots of top tech
and electronics people. The Trump re-domestication
program and AI initiatives have brought a lot of
such industries to the USA and such talent will
be in DEMAND. Good wages and much lower taxes.
Design new chips, set-up AI systems, help with the
SpaceX Mars program ... lots of stuff worth leaving
the UK. But leave NOW, while you can still afford,
and be ALLOWED, to move.
