Why Norway is Becoming the World's Richest Country
« on: February 27, 2024, 05:29:28 PM »
I  found this very interesting. Norway was rich long before oil was discovered.Power and wealth was widely distributed to regional centers long ago due in part to lack of roads and the  fiords.
Much wealth was held by national trusts long ago.

Yeah, well isn't that just swell...they're still part of the psychotic and despotic EU and all its NetZero & war and crap madness and part of NATO...but the spoiled wealthy bastards only kicked in a measly $8.8B last year, which on their GDP of about $453B is a paltry 1.9%...so they can be smug all the way till the world ends I guess...
We are now where The Founders were when they faced despotism.

They get a lot of electricity, perhaps most, from hydro-power, so EVs made sense no matter what. They also used it for maybe aluminum making. I recall they made one of the early oil or gas long pipelines.

Anyway, the documentary was interesting.
