    There’s no way the US is paying that much when they can just park some aircraft carriers outside it for significantly less and call it theirs while daring the other side to do something about it.

      Who would win? A big fat static target of an aircraft carrier or a small submarine who can go to Greenland, torpedo the big fat target, and go back home?

      Before you say “Murica!!!”, remember that the US Navy has a history of being surprised and kicked in the nuts by other nations submarines.

        And history shows us what happens after the US Navy gets kicked in the nuts. The US kills hundreds of thousands of people. Sometimes millions.
