The US government is over 38 trillion dollars in debt, but it still acts like it's rolling in money. It wants to buy Greenland. This so the US could take full responsibility for Greenland's defense by pumping up military presence there. The US can do that now. We could deploy massive military spending in Greenland, but haven't done that yet. The US wants to buy Greenland and then take on the full responsibility of it's defense. Trillions more added to the national debt. Fortunately, Greenland is not for sale.
Insistence on buying Greenland seems useless. We can currently ramp up our defense assets in Greenland under current agreement. The cost of doing this isn't being discussed as it is hidden behind the issue of buying Greenland. If we need to ramp up defense of Greenland and pay more attention to it's defense, we need all the help we can get from our NATO (or possibly our former NATO) allies. Doing it alone would be far more costly for us than sharing the burden with other NATO allies.
