US economic growth slowed to 1.5 pct. rate in Q2

Tae:

I am norwegian, and norway is the greatest nation on earth, and has a great education system, which can be demonstrated by the fact that I, a clearly super intelligent person, consider Norway to be a great country.

Some facts:

- I've known and worked with many Norwegians, and have taken holidays there.
- prostitution is illegal there (I tried to take a girl into a hotel in oslo once, but the guy at the desk said he would call the police if i did, so we went back to her place and enjoyed a lovely conversation).
- not sure why tae is pimping if he thinks Norway is so great but prostitution is illegal
- Norway gets most of its wealth from oil, it was just the luck of the geology, not because of their industry
- ever read Ibsen?
- Grieg's piano concerto is the most irritating chocolate box rubbish
- Norwegians are very very stubborn and insular
- a significant number of Norwegians were collaborators
- Norwegians do not make good travellers (as evidenced), they are always running back to their wonderful country (thank God, hint hint tae).
- Norwegians are very keen on the 'team'. Because they come from a village culture, they want to make all decisions as a team or town hall meeting, which means nothing is ever decided. They do not take kindly to any outsiders or anybody with any imagination or slightly eccentric. They only occasionally travel outside their village, so are uncomfortable with other cultures.
- Never never never make the most mild criticism of Norway to a Norwegian. They go beserk.
- They welcome refugees, but send them to the farthest Northern corner to 'encourage the others'.

Despite all that, I get on very well with most Norwegians. The one thing you can say is that they tell it how they see it, they are not slimy politicians. Originally Posted by essence

As I've posted here before, Norway is the best society on earth for many reasons. One indicator is the wisdom with which they manage resources, including money. Norway has the largest soverign wealth fund in the world, and refuses to invest any of it in Norway because they have too much investment there already and can't handle any more growth.

My family are farmers from Hamar, near the lake, and in the past they were officials in the labor party. However my own politics are considered almost extreme right there at the moment because I'm opposed to foreigners living there. Norwegians are by nature gullable and altruistic people and they don't have any notion of how dangerous many of these foreigners are. If they need foreign workers they should bring women in from needy places like Pakistan or the Phillipines, but foreign men should never be allowed in.

For that matter Norway should be careful of letting in even Americans, as many criminals from the US have abused the Norwegians' generosity. When I was in Norway some years ago there were bombings and shootings between American biker gangs in several places. I think the Hells Angles and a few other American criminal groups had migrated to there.

My only criticism of Norwegians is that they need sometimes to find their balls. That's why I was proud of those tens of thousands of volunteers during the war who fought in the Waffen SS against the communists. There were few who struggled with more valor than these Norwegians.

tea, i think you continue to provide lots of evidence to support my remarks.

BTW, I wish we were in a world where refugees who seek asylum in wonderful Norway were all hard working and healthy women, but real life (ever met real life?) doesn't work that way. So what is your wonderful altruistic society going to do about those fleeing torture and terror?

Every sentence you write is full of mutually untenable views.

I would tell you to fuck off back to Norway, but I have too much sympathy for your poor compatriots. Go and find a desert island.

BTW, what is your status in the US? resident, visitor? What kind of visa do you have? Do you have nice chats with immigration officers?

tea, on reflection i don;t believe for one moment you are Norwegian, you simply have some violent hatred of Norway for some strange reason and want to bring it's citizens into disrepute.

People, most Norwegians are friendly and sensible. Tae is not norwegian.

Do you really think the men who are raping Norwegian girls and breaking into Norwegian's homes are deserving of "asylum?"

It's none of our business as Norwegians to be taking in the scum of the earth that want to come to our rich country to rob and rape us.

The world is full of people being persecuted by someone, and it's not our freaking problem.

We Norwegians spend more per capita on humanitarian assistance than the US ever did.

Norway for the Norwegians.

Germany for the Germans.

Deutchland Uber Alles!

Maybe your family worked for Stalin and their British lapdogs during the war.

Mine did not.

I give up. You admire Norwegians who were traitors and joined the murderous Waffen SS?

Just how biased and ignorant are you?

The Waffen SS units composed of Norwegian volunteers committed no murder of any kind. They were honorable soldiers who volunteered to save Europe from the tyranny of Stalinist communism.

Why do you think these volunteers did what they did? They did it out of conscience and dedication, and if you had any brains you would know that instead of slinging around stupid accusations.

The government of Norway at the time was a pro-German government....Dah.

It's not "treason" to fight on the side of your own government.

Your problem is your a left-wing communist sympathizing criminal-coddling SOCIALIST.

It's people like you who let in the animals who enjoy raping our Norwegian girls.

Most Americans have never set foot outside their own country.

Go down to the bit abut war crimes.

I guess droping atomic bombs on defenseless civiians is something you wouldn't criticize though.

You'd say that wasn't a "war crime" because it was Americans who did it.

What pathetic hypocracy.

Luckily there were some very brave and sane Norwegians who fought tyranny during this time. I thin one of the most famous freedom fighters recently died.
