24. I Love Norway
Have been there several times and it's got to be one of the most beautiful countries in the world, not to mention a country that takes care of its people. . .Unlike what used to be the United States of America. The beauty of Norway's oil rich resources is that it cannot be privatized by pirana corporations and that profits go to the state, i.e, the radical notion that oil belongs to the people.

Norwegians do grumble about high taxes but given the services they get they say they wouldn't have it any other way. Ofcourse we couldn't emulate them--that would be shudder--socialism. (sarcasm)
