Why in the hell would Greenland want to join the United States?

  Key words - "paid for by taxes" - so you advocate for more taxation? Why am I not surprised since increasing taxation is ALWAYS the solution for DemocRats. Americans already pay to much in taxes - the real problen is that tax dollars are misused for asinine programs, government pork and by giving away tax dollars to other nations. There is plenty of money generated by existing taxes, the real problem is that much of the money is siphoned off by government misuse and thievery. The current administration is a classic example of this waste.

That's a specious argument. Americans pay far more for healthcare than citizens of other countries do. If taxes had to be increased to pay for universal health care, that would be offset by citizens no longer having medical and medical insurance expenses. That's how it works in other countries not run by conservitards.

And their overall per capita health care expenses are less than half on those in the US. Therefore, their system is far more efficient.

You can let go of your ideology and Trump-love when considering this. Elon wants "government efficiency." Cutting America's health care expenses in half--SOOOOOCIALZED MEDICINE--would be efficient. Obviously, Elon and Trump don't give a fuck, because they have never had to worry about medical bills. But most Americans aren't billionaires.
