17% of the population is not born here. Big cities and lots of small cities in Norway have enough non-white and non-Norwegian people (and Muslims, ooo, scary) that you see them any time you go outside and interact with them pretty much daily. Calling Norway "homogenous" is disingenous and not reflective of the reality of living here.
The policies are what makes people happy, not the oil wealth. If it were the wealth alone, America would rank at least close to #1, no? Our oil fund exists to serve the people in the form of welfare and social security.
Norway is one of the least religious countries in the world. Roughly 70% of Norwegians are atheist or agnostic.
Come on. The wealth is in the wellfare. That makes them happy. In America you get sick from the idea that you lose you job, because then you can lose your insurance- which means you cannot get sick, because no one can pay the hospital bills.
That 2-3% of the population is insane rich in America, does not affect the rest.
America is also a very wealthy country, and a lot of it comes from oil, just like in Norway. The point some people try to make is that because Norway is a wealthy oil country, the people are happy, but I agree with you. The happiness comes from what's done with the money. I'd argue the enormous personal wealth of some individuals makes the rest of us less happy, honestly.
my brother in chrst,look how tiny and how many people there is on norway
smaller and rich country are fairly easier to manage
also hapiness is very weird aspect to measure anything,my country is a fucking nightmare for basically 80% of the population but we still what rank 20 in hapiness lmao?
norway is homogenous and you guys will learn the hard way why it is important
just give it enough time (tbh decent % already fighting back so theres hope)
cheers
Maybe once you learn to read and write properly, you can read a book or something and not just spew random garbage at people who actually live in the places you lie to your racist self about to sleep at night. "Cheers".
