This topic was covered in Hannity last night. He had some young reporter there using Norway as her model and they agreed that capitalism was propping up socialist benefits. So essentially socialism was successful in Norway not because of it’s positive aspects but in spite of them.
Norway has less than 4 million people and is heavily subsidized by the fishing and oil industries... they still require a top income tax rate of over 70% and a 50!% alcohol tax to do it...
