Since 2005 we have had what some of you would call a socialist government, our finance minister would be labelled a radical Communist. The unemployment rate is currently 1.7%. We have universal free health care and education. Most Norwegians pay between 20-45% income tax, in addition to all sorts of other taxes and charges. Of course, some of us complain (it's in our nature to complain), but we can see that our money is well spent. A comment on the much feared word "redistribution": I am single, healthy and have no children, so my tax money is being "redistributed" to the benefit of others. But the funny thing about "redistribution" is that you never know when you or someone you love will be at the receiving and deserving end. Last Christmas Eve my 78-year old mother found herself at that end as she suffered a cerebral stroke. After being rushed to the emergency room by the ambulance she was admitted to the state-run local hospital. After many tests that day it was discovered that the cause of the stroke was an irregular heart rythm. Two days later a $20.000,- pacemaker was put in place. She was kept at the hospital for two weeks for observation, all most three weeks in all. The state paid for the private physiotherapy my mother needed to regain strength in her feet. The cost of all this for her: we don't know. We will never see the bill. My mother is feeling better than she has in many years because of the pacemaker. Good luck tonight!
