Using their natural resources to benefit all their citizens. sm - VTMT

Posted: Jan 13th, 2018 - 10:39 am In Reply to: this is a country with cradle to grave welfare funded - partly by large oil and natural gas

As a result, Norwegian citizens are among the happiest in the world. Their healthcare, which is highly rated, pays from cradle to grave. Higher education for the qualified is free including a stipend. Childcare, maternity/paternity leave, liberal vacations, sick leave, etc. They pay less of their income on taxes than we do when you add in all the things they do not have to struggle to pay for, healthcare/health insurance, child care to enable parents to work. They rate at the top for GDP, much better than the U.S. The infant mortality rate is very low, education level very high, and they outrank us in basically everything. No, Norwegian people are not clamoring to come to America.
