Denmark’s defense minister said Greenland did not need health care assistance, a day after President Trump said he planned to send a “great hospital boat” to the island.
It should also be noted that the US isn’t capable of sending hospital ships right now; it has two, but they’re both undergoing maintenance and not in any way ready to head to Greenland.
“Oh you looked at the hospital ship. That will be $50,000 in hospital fees. Thank you for paying.”
Ha! So true: a friend of mine injured himself on a mountain bike. An ambulance drove by, stopped, looked at his injury, and tried to bill him thousands of dollars for the privilege.
