Norway, another socialistic state, at the moment has more gold medals
than the USA, which has nine, the same as much smaller, population-wise,

Must be the fault of global warming, eh?


They probably care more about these sports.



Yeah, that must be it. A country with a population of under six million
fielded a hockey team that beat the highly paid U.S. National Hockey
League team because the Americans don't care enough about hockey. Oh,
and the Fins only came in third.
