We don't have a nationalized oil industry we have private companies who take the risk themselves to go into these other countries and do business there is no reason for a taxpayer to pay for the oil companies to go down there to get oil that they will then overcharge us for and make another record-breaking profit off of that's not the way it worksDon't think they gonna go down their and voluntarily do it for nothing/ spend billions. Unfortunately No one in Venezuela knows how to either. Otherwise, they would have been harvesting higher than 10%. I get your drift though.
Apparently that oil is harvested much different than say Mid East area. Lot more complex, but lot more value as well is my understanding. This is more about preventing China from getting a dribble than it is getting it up and going , so Venezuela can pivot back to capitalism, get on their feet, self sufficiency in my opinion.
The taxpayer isnt gonna pay for that. Venezuela oil profits will.We don't have a nationalized oil industry we have private companies who take the risk themselves to go into these other countries and do business there is no reason for a taxpayer to pay for the oil companies to go down there to get oil that they will then overcharge us for and make another record-breaking profit off of that's not the way it works
You need to read the treaty signed between USA and Denmark in 1951 1st. We use to have like 30 bases there,now just one. No one is gonna attack Greenland. Purchase ,if the citizens of Greenland decide,is another story. Denmark is so small, you can hardly see it on a global map,located hundreds of miles away from the mamouth island of Greenland.I really hope there are some adults in the room and put a stop to this kind of stuff. Trump has had an obsession with Greenland going back to when Obama was in office. It's utterly bizarre.
I genuinely don't think the average person on the street realizes just how much their life will change for the worse if we turn into a full fledged rogue nation and attack the territory of an ally. Forget the military implications (and I truly believe the man thinks they won't shoot back), economically this would be a disaster. $1.5 Trillion dollars a year in trade is at risk.
The people of Greenland will determine their own fate, Not Denmark.
"After the Second World War, the United Nations pushed for decolonization in Greenland. In 1953, the former colony was incorporated into Denmark and granted two seats in the Danish Parliament. In 1979, Greenland achieved Home Rule, which included the formation of the Greenlandic Parliament, and it gained self-rule in 2009 through the passage of a law that included a ‘blueprint’ for seeking independence. The 2009 law firmly established that the decision to go for independence from Denmark would now rest with the Greenlandic people."
