Look at a population pyramid.

This site has done nice animated options: https://chartingtheglobe.com/demographics/population-pyramid

If you want to see more regional overviews, then the CIA also has some nice selections here:

The main issue is that the population is getting older. Not enough new borns to pay taxes to care for the old people in twenty years. This can only be solved by immigration from countries with higher birthrates.

The fuck is the Norwegian prime minister to do with that load of shit? He’s not even on the committee.

Apparently Trump doesn’t even know what the fuck the Nobel prize is.

We don’t have to drive goods anywhere. It’s all on paper.

If the German company shipping German goods from a German harbor says that the goods actually belongs to their Polish subsidiary, that’s Polish goods.

EU is a trade union though, so it’s all of EU.

He can’t tax one EU country different from others.

Let’s say he decides to do it anyway.

Then the EU country with the highest tariff could simply move the goods through another EU country with a lower tariff. All on paper of course.

But anyway, why’d EU even care about domestic US taxes…

He is from Syria.

I’ll assume you’re from USA.

Imagine you’re taking care of your farm in some rural area in Iowa, minding your own business far away from the city and all the politics and all that shit. However, one day, out of nowhere, your farm got bombed in a civil war that had nothing to do with you. Everything is gone. No place to stay, nothing to eat, no work to get and nowhere to go.

Someone offers to help you out of the country, to Mexico, and get a new citizenship and a place to be and work. The catch is that you have to enroll in the Mexican army temporarily. Ok, so they have a small military operation against some other country that you’ve never heard of, but don’t worry about that. If you have some cash you can bribe yourself to nice safe paperwork position far from the action, so no risk really.

That would a reasonable thing to accept for someone who has nothing to lose and everything to win.

Except that you got sent to the front line with no training and no way out.

Sure the guy is an idiot, but the real asshole are the Russians.

Thousands of tourists? In northern Finland this time of year?

This is the experience they came for.

If they want to starve out Greenland, they should remember that there are more American soldiers in NATO bases in Europe than the population of Greenland.

I’d rather not. I can’t watch his speeches without throwing up.

It also doesn’t matter what he says. Words means nothing to him.

Headline needs to calm the fuck down.

The whole thing is so absurd. How exactly would an American invasion happen? What are they going to attack?

There’s a meeting between Denmark and USA next week. Anything you read on news and social media in the meantime is speculation or fear mongering.

Do you think they’ll accept a loss at the next election, or are they going to start a bloody conflict anyway?

I think the proper way to handle the Chinese/Russian shadow fleet would be to sink them as soon as possible.

If they don’t register on AIS and don’t respond when called on radio first time, just send a torpedo without any further warning.

See who responds afterwards, and if they don’t, just wait and see how many more they want sunken.

There’s little point in arresting them just to listen to their lies. If they had any legitimate reason to sail around there, they’d have answered the call the first time.

It seems to have worked well enough for them, since they’re the ones running the government now.

I also don’t think they’re going to leave peacefully ever. If you want them out, you might as well toss them out sooner than later.

We can’t just walk to fucking DC and remove a democratically elected prez you idiots

It’s Jan 6th. tomorrow, just saying.

Our physical mail has been degraded a lot.

It used to be day to day delivery and cheap. But now, just before the closing, it would have cost me 4 euros to send a postcard to my neighbor, and she wouldn’t receive it until next week, maybe longer, maybe not at all. And then as the sender, you should also consider the additional weeks that people might take between checking their mailbox.

No wonder people don’t use it. It’s straight up unprofessional to communicate by letters here.

I did receive a letter last year, but I actually thought it was weird of them to use physical mail - as if they didn’t want me to have the information. If was important, they certainly shouldn’t do it like that.

Yes 22 would make sense to the alien.

All of which has nothing to do with what engine is in the car.

It’s still a cool border agreement though. The new border goes right down the middle of the island, but it is agreed that whoever manages to get their sorry ass to that piece of cold rock are free to roam the entirety of it.

They should make a TV show.

F.R.E.U.N.D.E.

So I guess the kids are gonna go to the dark web. What could go wrong.

I will look forward to Darth Musk throwing a tantrum against Australia when they eventually fine X for not complying, but that’s about the only good thing to come from this ban.

Oh yes sure, it’s great they stop the kids from being brainwashed by the algorithms. They really should ban everyone, especially the elderly.

Based on your description I’m going to take a wild guess: Your father is a “functioning addict”.

It explains everything, including his self destructive behavior.
