The USA's cultural hegemony and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race.
You'd think Charlie Kirk was a beloved figure in Norway based on how much space some of our media have given him.

Adjusting tax rates to be more fair, and according to public opinion, would be a good first step to easing the pressure on those already struggling.

Preferred and actual effective tax rates are similar from 11,000 USD at 7% up to 55,000 USD at 24%, disagreeing a little more at 220,000 USD at 38% and 35%, before they diverge a lot towards the end of 11 million USD with a preferred rate of 48.1% and actual effective tax rate at 25.1%

Apparently the IMF thinks Norway needs to push more disabled people to work through reforms of our disability benefits.
Fortunately it seems most politicians do not want to go that route; they believe that tax cuts for the young will be the solution. I hope they don't consider it the whole solution.
Paragraph from the IMFs report on Norways economy in 2025. Paragraph title: "Advancing fiscal reforms is essential to bolster resilience and support long-term growth." Tax reforms aimed at improving efficiency and broadening the revenue base remain a priority. Consolidating multiple VAT rates and enhancing incentives for work and investment would improve resilience of the tax system. [Highlited section]Further measures to reform disability and sickness benefits, along the lines of past IMF recommendations, are needed to reduce work disincentives, increase labor force participation, and contain long-term fiscal costs. [End highlight] Sustained reform efforts are crucial to ensure long-term sustainability of fiscal policy in the face of rising structural spending pressures.

Føles rart å se et intervju med et så stort fokus på klimautfordringer hvor så mye av innholdet er generert av KI — som ikke akkurat er klimavennlig — i tillegg til å være dårlig journalistikk.

Sadly Germany never properly de-nazified.
Top text says Allies: We defeated the Nazis! The Nazis: followed by pictures of four people in Nazi uniforms next to pictures of the same people in their later positions. Wernher von Braun became director of NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center at NASA. Walter Hallstein became the first president of the Commission of the European Economic Community and one of the founding fathers of the European Union. Adolf Heusinger became the Chairman of the NATO Military Committee. Kurt Waldheim became the secretary-general of the United Nations.
