Must be.Â* "Hail to the Chief" is played wherever he speaks.

My now-retired Norwegian buddy, who worked 20 years in the oil drilling
and production business and as a union rep and who was retrained as a
teacher at government expense after suffering a serious work-related
injury, just sent me an email telling me his twin grandkids are starting
their college careers soon at the Norwegian Institute of Science and
Technology, tuition-free.

Perhaps you don't know any more about those Nordic countries than you do
about our govenment here. Here's a bit from Wiki:

The Nordic model (also called Nordic capitalism or Nordic social
democracy)refers to the economic and social policies common to the
Nordic countries (Denmark, Finland, Norway, Iceland, the Faroe Islands
and Sweden). This includes a combination of free market capitalism with
a comprehensive welfare state and collective bargaining at the national
level with a high percentage of workers belonging to a labour union; and
state provision of free education and free healthcare as well as
generous, guaranteed pension payments for retirees funded by taxation.

Although there are significant differences among the Nordic countries,
they all share some common traits. These include support for a
"universalist" welfare state aimed specifically at enhancing individual
autonomy and promoting social mobility; a corporatist system involving a
tripartite arrangement where representatives of labor and employers
negotiate wages and labor market policy mediated by the government;and a
commitment to widespread private ownership, free markets and free trade.

The country has the fourth-highest per capita income in the world on the
World Bank and IMF lists. On the CIA's GDP (PPP) per capita list (2015
estimate) which includes autonomous territories and regions, Norway
ranks as number eleven. It has the world's largest sovereign wealth
fund, with a value of USD 1 trillion. Norway has had the highest Human
Development Index ranking in the world since 2009, a position also held
previously between 2001 and 2006. It also has the highest
inequality-adjusted ranking. Norway ranks first on the World Happiness
Report,the OECD Better Life Index, the Index of Public Integrity, and
the Democracy Index. Norway also has one of the lowest crime rates in
the world.

My buddy has a nice house, a good pension, and top of the line health
care. 21st Century socialism works nicely.



You should apply for asylum in Norway however take note that their
standards for permanent residence have been tightened.
