Greenland is autonomous. Are you suggesting the US buy it and force
Them to follow our rules?

Use it to shoot missiles at our arch enemies Canada and Sweden (Free A$AP)

I’ve never thought about this. You can just buy and sell huge territories in 2019? Can we sell Idaho to somebody?

Maybe Greenland will buy it.

Maybe a 1 for 1 trade?

Would Idahoans have to learn Danish?

Would a 1039 exchange be a good strategy here?

I’m not sure. Are they substantially similar? One is mostly barren, useless land that has little value

Make it a territory. Use it for its resources and strategic military location. Build some nice resort towns

Yes. That is what I’m suggesting. The current people can keep their towns which they don’t own anyways and in exchange

You assume they'd feel being American is much better than their

Yes. If not, they can obviously move to Denmark if they’d like. I’m guessing most of the 55k would chose to stay

That sounds like a PR nightmare. Buy their homes and kick them out.

Uh what. I already said they could keep their homes and that this is assuming a favorable deal would be worked out for

There is no private land in Greenland.

With global warming Greenland figures to be prime real estate in like 4 years. Seems like a good investment to me.
