😂😂😂😂 oh really, is he asking Musk to.pay cause I know he wont
Ohh, a promise from trump, the king of lies who famously never pays anyone.
Get 10k now!!
And all it will cost you is Healthcare, Education, Employee rights and self autonomy!!
What are you waiting for, don’t miss out on this one time offer to get 10k!!
Then we can expel them as immigrants since they were Danish citizens.
They’ll either kill them, force them onto reservations or kick them off the island.
And, since Trump is involved, the promised $10k might never get paid.
Yeah. As an Aussie, I can’t tell you how awesome free/cheap healthcare is
Don’t forget Trump also wanted to get rid of generic medicine here in Australia, so it was also cost cheap medicine too
But then all of the people in Greenland won’t work! Remember when the United States gave us all in the midst of the COVID pandemic and none of us returned to our jobs and now all live on yachts? This would be even worse!
It seems as though they can’t understand why anyone wouldn’t want to be American, which is kinda nutty.
Yeah, you’d have to pay me a lot more to even consider it, $10000 seems laughably low.
Yeah. Someone else suggested it might cover your first ambulance ride. I’m thinking maybe your first year health insurance?
Edit - it was just a wild guess, but here’s a badly formatted table copied from an article in Forbes:
Age of member Average monthly costs
- Age 21 $445
- Age 27 $467
- Age 30 $505
- Age 40 $569
- Age 50 $795
- Age 60 $1,208
So, for my age, my guess was almost exactly right!
Monthly? Dafuq…
Best country in the world they keep telling us.
You pay that per month, and still get denied healthcare.
It’s a racket
Fun fact denmark already sends more money than that so by accepting this deal they not only would they become american but also loose gdp. No matter how you look at it its a lose lose for greenland lol
Just FYI, loose and lose have different meanings. Kinda like desert and dessert.
Yes it was a typo. Sometimes when im tired in the morning or night my spelling gets funky. I have spelt english words in hungarian and hungarian words on english before, i think its because im bilingual.
