Title: Why Norway is Becoming the World's Richest Country
Post by: patentlymn 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...

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.

Ya, interesting...but anchored to EU/NATO...like saying your are the best county in Commiefornia...which is why New California is trying to split away...why counties in WA & OR want to be part of greater Idaho...

The should embrace Norwexit...
