'Homeless people given free lunch' to attend Trump Jr event in Greenland (theguardian.com)

I think giving homeless people free lunches is an excellent idea and I hope the incoming administration for the U.S.A. continues with this.


Note welfare is fine if those receiving it aren't in America. Trump is already proposing to spend tax dollars on a real estate deal no one is interested in instead of supporting his constituents. He still has no idea what he's doing. Undermining school since the 80s is really paying off for the country!


Greenland has 50k people. Just give them 1 million per head, passport and ask them them to vote to join the US as a state.

Far better than annexing territories by war.


One million will not cut it. Greenland has free healthcare, free education, and a whole host of other social benefits that, over a lifetime, give a lot more value than a million in hand, and the US social system does. In addition their current (danish) passport ranks higher (4) than the US passport (9) in the The Henley Passport Index [1].

Or we could just leave them be.
