I do find it amusing that Norway is one of the worlds major oil producers, yet the people pay some of the highest prices at the pump, and that food prices are so high that some people drive to Sweden of all places to find cheaper prices, all in the name of Social Democracy.

that is all just whiny Norvegians. We have the world's highest standards of living an everybody are generally pretty well off. Compared to wages, we have the thirds lowest gas prices in Europe, as well as pretty average prices on food. We are just whiny, cheap-assed people, so people generally make more fuzz about the "high" prices. We also get free health-care, schools and eldery care, as well as good social security and job safety. Students get loans free of interest to gain a good education. I am pretty happy with our social democracy and gladly pay my taxes and buy my "expensive" goods in Norway.
