- zaroth 7y agoIf it was actually possible to buy Greenland, for say $50 billion, it would be an incredible deal for the US. It has rare earth deposits, but more importantly as the Arctic undergoes drastic climate changes—particularly in the availability of shipping lanes—it becomes increasingly strategically significant. Importantly, Greenland is a net economic loss to Denmark of about $500 million per year, so it would be saving Denmark a great deal of money to let the US take it off their hands.
