Offer Greenland residents 100K and American citizenship and most will move to the Lower 48. Greenland is beautiful but a miserable place to live. Or winter in America.

100k IS NOT ENOUGH MONEY...RELO WILL TAKE A LARGE PORTION OF THAT AND THEN U STILL HAVE HOUSING COSTS ONTOP OF THAT.....IF U SELL OFF EVERYTHING U OWN (CAR INCLUDED)
U R STILL STARING AT A SMALL STACK OF MONEY HERE IN THE USA.
IT IS ONE OF THE REASON WE LEFT ALASKA WHEN WE DID....AT&T PAID EVERYTHING,IF WE HAD STAYED ANOTHER SEVERAL YEARS...THAT PROBABLY WOULD HAVE BEEN ON US.
jUST AS AN EXAMPLE....WE LEFT GEORGIA ON OUR OWN DIME,BACK IN 2005....TRANSPORT WAS 10,000 LBS OR LESS,ONE SMALL CAR INCLUDED IN TRANSPORT....COST 10,000 DOLLARS BACK TO BAILEY
i CAN NOT PHANTOM THE COST AT TODAY'S RATE. ....BUT 100,000 IS NOT ENOUGH TO GET RE ESTABLISHED IN ANOTHER COUNTRY (ESPECIALLY IF U HAVE CHILDREN)
The annual GDP of Greenland is 58K per person. Half of that is aid from Denmark.
Young people offered that much money will take it. Icelandic women go off to college and then never return and Iceland has a much more vibrant economy and is a much nicer place to live.
And old people? Especially if they are given Social Security. Want to spend another Winter in your 60's in the Arctic Circle?

I disagree. All you have to do is open a daycare. 100k is plenty to get started. Then you just work with local Democrats to parlay that 100k into several million within a few years. America is the land of opportunity, so you should always capitalize on that fact.
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.
