Go ahead and try to buy the frigid little island we call home.
There are enough of us to turn at least four red states blue.
BTW you do have fish in your stores, right? Thats all we eat.

(115,681 posts)1. The population of Greenland, which is actually the world's largest island,
is about 57,000, not nearly enough to turn four red states blue. You might be thinking of Iceland, which is a much smaller island, with a population of a bit over 300,000. But neither is for sale anyhow.

fashioned way and steal it.
It's not like the olden days like war with Spain or Mexico, though. Considering how well we're doing with places like Afghanistan, it will only take a few trillion dollars worth of occasionally working modern marvels of technology and about 75 years.
