Donald Trump is astonished that Norway is vastly wealthy, the richest Government in the world, because of the North Sea oil and gas, but the UK with the same North Sea is poor
I'll cure his astonishment it is because it has been completely privatised in the UK, and not in Norway

What I learned at Ga Tech was:
“If it’s moving and it shouldn’t use duct tape. If it’s not moving and it should use WD-40”.
Ironically I learned “bang on it with a hammer until it’s fixed and then paint over it” as an analytical chemist.

The Three Rules of Engineering:
1. Always use the right tool for the job.
2. A hammer is always the right tool.
3. Any tool can be used as a hammer.
