[@nicolasnod7359]

This is amazing, thank you for posting it and the subtitles. I had an idea how the northern system worked but I wasn't aware of the details of how it merged itself with capitalism. It is clear that in order to strive as a nation that doesn't want to be fully capitalist, there must be some concessions, i.e. the taking into account the import-export at the moment of paying sallaries. I wish more countries would do this, currently here (Argentina) we're going through an economic crisis that can't seem to be put out, but it's basically all because of corruption in politics. I'm as broke as it gets and you can't get a decent job if your life depended on it. The average paying job is around the equivalent of $350 dollars a month and the cost of living is above $600. We do have free health care and education and if your entire direct family is poor you get some government help, but it's all band-aids on a gushing wound. But it's nice to see some parts of the world aiming in the right direction.

[@prebenand]

What’s $350 and $600 in nok?

[@nicolasnod7359]

@@prebenand 600 is 5,162.88 accordign to google. But there's many factors to keep in mind. Argentina is not as expensive as the US, Rent starts at around 100 dollars and ususally an acceptable place will be between 150-200. And the Argentinian peso is so inflated 1 dollar equals around 150 pesos, so that makes for a lot of ranging. Still 600 dollars is not enough for a comfortable living, and someone working 40+ hours a week has the right for a comfortable lifestyle.

Takk for denne interessante episoden. Dette har eg opplevd som norsk-amerikansk arbeider i begge landa. The one big thing I think is missed here is that Norway is also a relatively privileged country in that it is not (any longer) bothered by colonial powers. When less privileged countries try to empower workers, take control of their economies, and improve quality of life, colonial creditors come knocking with sanctions and austerity and military force. Norway has been allowed to empower its society largely unimpeded by colonialism in the contemporary era. The prosperity of everyday Norwegians also came after its independence from Denmark and Sweden and then the end of occupation by Germany. I remember hiking Kongevegen and seeing historical signs about how Norwegian peasant men living along the road were required to basically stop what they were doing when a noble wanted to cross and to ferry them over the mountain. Not a lot a person can do to better their situation when they live in subservience. One could say that this is in some ways what is happening to working class people in the US... The origins of this “service culture” and of tipping for example have been traced to slavery.

[@fredspipa]

You're making great points here! It's not often I hear someone mention how externally forced austerity hinders and impedes a country's development, but it needs more awareness. Thank you!

[@MikaelForsell]

For me it was surprising find, tho logical when thinking, those negative aspects of Norways economy. For example 'service innovations are low. The public sector is very large, while the private sector is underdeveloped. The oligopolistic structure of the market, the lack of competition, is part of the reason for Norway's high prices'. I am finnish myself. I have nothing but respect towards Norway and its people. I feel that we are family. This video was enlightening in a way that i learn that oil is not the only reason to Norway's success. Thats why I am proud of them. Overall, all nordic countries can be proud about development we achieved in last 200 years. My own country has the lowest gdp of five nordic nation. But we are not so far away from the others/nordic medium. But we were the most poor of the all other nordic areas. We were poor longer than others. But i feel that we start to come closer to "nordic standard", where Norway is a finest example. Lets not forget as an nordic citizens, that we can enjoy and learn from this era. We were backwaters of europe and undeveloped less than 200 yrs ago. We have to understand that nothing is granted, or permanent in this sense. Humans are only one race, all over the globe, nobodys better than other. That i know is fact, based to my own life. Only different times, different places. I stop writing now as i start to feel sleepy at last...zzz.. Sorry. ❤ from Fin I intentionally started "offensive" sides of economy in Norway. Yeah, i have learned it from watching US political theatre. Try to be loud and peg a fight, so u can be seen. Blame Trump about this😅...i hate that man...

I do not mind that particular one, but there are other idiotic things our tax money is being spent on which I'd like to see otherwise.

15:26 Hvordan er de faktiske tallene? Mener bare, det er letter å øka fra 1 til 2 en fra 500 til 1000. Tegner dette faktisk ett bra bilde, eller er det litt selektiv utvelgelse av dataen her?

[@HagenTheMaster]

Det er ikke lettere å øke fra 1 til 2 enn å øke fra 500 til 1000, fordi begge tilsvarer en dobling. Hvis du bare kan legge på 1 hver gang, så trenger du riktignok å legge til en gang på 1, og 500 ganger på 500, men det blir ikke riktig å tenke slik i denne sammenhengen. Det er bedre å tenke at hver 1-er er med på å legge til en ny 1-er, så 500 1-ere legger til 500 hver, så det blir det samme. Når man snakker om økonomi så kan man ikke snakke om absolutter, men om vekst og andeler. Hvis det går dårlig for to bedrifter, at en verdt 100 kr og en verdt 1000000 kr går ned 10% i verdi, så går jo den verdt 1000000 kr ned mye mer i absolutt verdi, men relativt til utgangspunktet så har de jo falt like mye. Statistikken Eia viser sier jo at den totale merverdisummen av økonomien fordelt på hver innbygger har blitt større i Norge enn USA over samme tidsrom. At vi gjør ting smartere kan være en forklaring, men hvis man antar at begge hadde ca. samme økonomiske utgangspunkt (som blir nevnt tidligere mtp Norge i Europa i 1913) så kan det peke på at vi gjør noe bedre, hvertfall noe som reflekteres i BNP.

"In turn this means thriving for higher education and higher skilled jobs pays off less" both yes and no. if you get higher education that gives an higher payed job you get more than others that choose an lower education, but you would not get the same difference as in USA. so you could choose to work as a carpenter (2 year high school+2 year trainee and then passed exam) and get 45000$ a year or you could take education as a vet (3year high school, 3 year degree plus 2 year master) and get 115000$ a year (for private, vets working for the government got less at around 55k but have other benefits as more payed time off and extremely high rates if needed to work overtime) also as Øyvind points out, high school and university education is "free". you would need to pay for own books but a lot can be bought used and if you need to rent most have low price campus and there is a state loan for students to pay for renting, food and "whatever" where 1\3rd is being deleted of if you pass the studies and there is no interest while studying and its quite low when your done.

NO jmitterii2 For 11 md. siden (redigert) I actually did a study on effective taxes of Sweden, Germany, Canada, France, and Austria basing it on taxable income (after deductions) of an individual non-married no kids $50K, based it on Idaho resident as I am. We pay more in taxes than all those countries plus we pay a substantial amount on medical premiums even if employed and co-payments. We're really screwed on our taxes here. When you add medical insurance premiums such as an employer plan to their medical deduction, their effective taxes are way lower on those incomes of $125K individual and $175K joint taxable income earners. Seriously, add up all of our state income tax (if applicable), Federal income tax, payroll, and you can budget a food cost for any applicable sales tax, as Euro members collect taxes about as much via their version of sale tax (VAT tax). And since they all have universal health insurance, special pension programs, etc. It comes out we pay more effective taxes and especially more withdrawal toward a 401K match and medical insurance, than they. Really, we're getting screwed hardcore. Its no wonder many other 1st world nations look at us as they also look at some other idiot nations. We're a bunch of idiot rubes the way we handle our economy and finances. House tax Am In the United States, there are different rates for the different states, while many places are more than 2.5% in property taxes on housing. That means in a home that costs $ 1 million for example. Connecticut wants a tax of more than $ 20,000 every single year, and a tax of $ 160,000 on housing, and it has to be paid by everyone, those who earn a lot, those who make little money, retirees, etc. etc.

Yeah its all good and dandy but everything is also as expensive. Your salary will be sufficient... if you buy the cheapest stuff or don't eat outside. So we can't be equal and looking at equality as a means of X profession should earn as much as Y profession ,is stupid. People specialize themselves for a reason and should be rewarded accordingly.

[@haakonht]

People who are specialized have more education and higher student loans (to pay cost of living, education is free) but they *still* only work 37,5 hours a week and usually have a *much less physically demanding job* so exactly why do these people living the easy life deserve 3 times more money? Is it because they managed the amazing feat of not dropping out of their free education? (Disclaimer: I am one of the people who live the easy life, I am a programmer. My motivation for specializing is because I am *interested* in the thing I specialize in, and I get to work with something I like, *not* because of the money although it's a nice added bonus)

[@meansnada]

@@haakonht well yes and no, you are assuming those that didn't choose to specialize, did so because they found their passion in a more physically demanding field. So a freshmen who studied hard, should be earning as few as someone who opted into working as a salesforce employee who still works 37,5 hours a week? No. As you point out, education is free yet those who actually study and put resources into being more accomplished still earn just a few more than those who didnt? doesn't seem fair

This wouldn't work in the US because of the huge supply of unskilled labor and immigration. The median American worker simply isn't worth as much as the median Norwegian worker.. A lot of them wouldn't be able to find employment if employers were forced to pay them $20+/ hour. And a lot of Norway's wealth (but far from all of it) really does come from oil. It's not a coincidence that you have the largest sovereign wealth fund in the world. Most of that money came from oil, not productivity gains ;) But great video!

[@fredrikfjeld1575]

Oil comes into it, but the UK, Netherlands, US and more, also had/has oil. The US has oil and it uses its oil money a lot more (we store in in the biggest fund in the world) so their salaries increase a lot more than ours! Of course it would work in the US as well. Do you think Norway had mostly an educated work force, full of engineer from the 1930s? It does require a structural change. Give people free education, and the low skilled workers become well educated ones. You have to regulate firms as well, granting more rights to the workers, focus more on health and security and of course actually have unions. The only reason this wouldn't work in the US, is that even our right most politicians, would be far left in the US. All of this would be called communism. Bernie Sanders is to the right of our Høyre (the dominant right wing party) by a far margin. The US could also face focused on a model like the Norweigan one, but if I remember correctly, it was voted down. By that, I mean that the US government voted on how they were to spend government money to boost the economy. WW2 had shown that the US could become number one in anything the government backed. They voted down healthcare and education and instead voted for military spending. At the time it was thought that the increase in production would be the same, no matter what you spent government money on, but that the increase in health and education might give a small bonus compared to everything else. It was still voted down. I can remember that incorrectly, but if my memory serves, there are official documents for this. We probably wouldn't have had internet before many years later, or cloud storage, personal computers and the likes, if the US hadn't chosen this, but they still chose not to focus on the education and health of their citizens. All this is just to point out that the only reason this doesn't work in the US, as you said, is because the people, or the government, doesn't want it to. And all the money in the fund comes from oil. Nothing from productivity. We also have a rule for how much of it we can use each year, as to keep it growing and to never run out. The current administrator of the fund thinks he will be the person to have lost most money in all of human history, since the stocks will at some point plumet

People don't just randomly go "bi-curious" out of nowhere, and your phrasing of "are they ready" makes it sound like someone is demanding people to try bisexual sex. Some people who define themselves as "bi-curious" are just gay/bi people unsure about their sexuality, in which the labelling would just be temporary. alot of other times it's straight people being curious about the sexual experience due to other reasons or influences. Very rarely does an act of "bi-curiosity" actually lead to any "realization" of them having a different orientation. Creating the notion that people "have to" experiment to truly understand their orientation fully is completely ridiculous anyway. Most people are confident in their orientation and understand it. And even in the few "closet" cases, a person would generally come to terms and realize their orientation without the need of a sexual experimentation part. Sex is only a portion of an oriention (and one that is purely a temporary stimulus), the strongest and primary asset would still be the actual romantic attraction.
