The plan would replace the $600 million in subsidies Denmark gives the island each year
The Donald Trump administration is reportedly considering giving about $10,000 to each Greenland resident as part of its plan to annex the island.
The possibility would seek to replace the $600 million Denmark gives the territory in subsidies every year, and has stopped being mere rhetoric to become official U.S. policy, according to The New York Times.
The outlet detailed that the plan already includes several cabinet departments and that the White House’s National Security Council has met several times to advance on it, recently sending specific instructions to different offices.
I meant fucked as in our politicians are, despite what we think, thinking generations ahead to the point they’ve accepted the consequences of our actions and know there’s no going back and therefore looking for ways to monetize the future bleakness that is our world.
I worded what I said poorly. I agree with you, it makes no sense. Short term thinking. I was trying to say that they could do all sorts of horrible things in the old fashioned way, not draw much attention and not much complaint. They could accomplish their short sighted plans without all the drama and scrutiny.
