This makes me so proud as a Norwegian! I am glad a lot has changed in Norway (very much inspired by they US and its constitution) since your family left, but as true friend of the US this great speech makes me proud!
@whoo689 ha, I think he confused the luxury tax for his yacht upgrades... his income tax is so loopholed into nonexistence he probably thinks that what he puts into social security (which admittedly for him is more than most people's annual income, gag me!)--the only thing we can't get out of paying--is punitive. I LONG FOR his financial woes--social security payments being double the average US income (&he'll get it plus interest for retirement,$900/month being typical SS income for 35yrs@45k).
