You’ll have better luck appealing to real people rather than the people you’ve been told exist by the news. Maybe find a different movie that most people actually have seen and liked
I got my degree in photography (AA/BA). Both schools, in the arts departments I found that all the professors went by their first names. I liked that a lot more for some reason than my gen ed classes. It felt like a barrier was lifted by just being able to say “Hey Ryan, what do you think about this?”
☺️☺️☺️ that is absolutely heartwarming! Ty for saying this! And I agree! In some places I even have a hard time getting students to call me by my first name just bc the culture. ☺️
I had a serious eye operation ten years ago. I didn’t have to pay a penny. I live 200 miles from Oslo and had 15 minutes to get on the train. At the other end, I had a taxi waiting. All was covered. I had to meet with the eye doctor on the day of my release, which was later than the last train I could get to go home. They told me, ‘No worries, we’ll get you a taxi’, and they did. The bill was 7,200 kroner and I had to pay 180 of that. I wish anglophone countries could understand that paying taxes provides this sort of treatment. Moreover, that they might need a service such as this some days. Instead, they hide behind cost and, in the USA, crippling medical debts that are not always covered by insurance, especially among the lower paid or self employed. Norway rules the roost!
This was very, very incredible! Thank you for all the work you are doing, thank you for those inspiring words! I'm loving thinking about what my sentence will be! Thanks again!
So the telephone, internet, satellites, and the global economy……failed? When did this happen? I shall send a raven to inquire of these failures post-haste.
IN TERMS OF COST .YES NORWAY MIGHT BE GOOD.THATS WHY IT MIGHT HAVE TERMED AS BEST HEALTH SYSTEM BY SIME PEOPLE.IN FACT THE SERVICE IS EXTREMELY BAD.WAITING LIST IS TOO LONG.DOCTORS AND HEALTH WORKERS ARE EXTREMELY CARELESS AS THEY DONT HAVE TO TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILTY IF PATIENTS DIE OR OTHER INJURIES DURING TREATMENT.FOR ME THE BEST HEALTH CARE IS PROVIDING GOOD HEALTH SERVICE AT THE RIGHT TIME TO THENPATIENT TO PREVENT SUFFERING OF THE PATIENT AND TO PREVENT THE PROBLEM ESCALATION.MAKING PATIENTS SUFFER NOT TREATING AT RIGHT TIME AND CREATING MAJOR HEALTH PROBLEM OUT OF MINOR HEALTH PROBLEM CANT BE GOOD HEALTH SYSTEM.ONLY BECAUSE OF COST EFFECTIVENESS ONE CANT BE TERMED AS BEST HEALTH SYSTEM WHEN PROFESSIONALISM AND EXPERTISE IS LAGGING PUTTING PATIENTS IN TRAUMA FOR FEE CHARGED WITHIN 300 EURO.
What you are saying is so important for anyone coming to live in Norway, but more importantly make it a home. If I would be you, I would talk to interest groups, political parties, even the government, but most of all try to get on national TV and tell your success story and why it's your home now. Norwegians and our institutions need to learn how to attract people from all over the world who wants to get a job, maybe start a company, thats important. Even so the most important thing is to make all you that leave home (this is not a easy thing to do and I think a lot of people in general all over the world might be like this), feeling that you have a sense of belonging to live in Norway, you have roots here that will make you live her possibly for the rest of your life. When you are talking about innovation, new ideas, I can't think of a better idea than to get new ideas from people who grew up in different cultures, we Norwegians need to learn from that. This is IMO so important if we are going to attract skilled/talented people to improve on things that I think Norway can learn a lot from other countries, in this case the US. As someone who have started companies, I always felt that the government arrangement to get funding is way to bureaucratic (I have given up because it's so hard and actually takes the focus off from what you are trying to create, it is a pity), a waste of resources that could have been better spent on actual innovation. In my experience, in Norway if you have tried to start a company and you succeed, but for reasons later don't succeed, it's not really appreciated as something very positive, compare this to the US, as I have gotten to know it. There it's more or less the opposite, it's looked upon as a positive thing on let's say your CV, even though you didn't really make it big. What I am trying to say is that both as a culture and to learn, that it's ok to fail, in fact to encourage it, is what most likely will make you succeed in the end, experience. This is something that Norwegians and the whole innovative culture here really need to learn (in a much broader cultural spectrum), and to be looked up upon, not like an ass that wasted money and time to actually build something that could/would benefit not only you, but make it a workplace for a lot of people, and actually have a bigger chance to create huge businesses in some of the cases. One other thing, is that people with money already (established companies that are "low" risk), seem to take too much of the money to support new people. They should actually allocate funds to more risky proposals, even though venture capital is high risk in itself, why give a huge chunk of it to already established bigger companies in the first place? I hope that you understand what I am trying to communicate, it's erm early morning, couldn't sleep, saw your videos and hopefully I make sense rambling half awake. I want to say that I am so happy that you feel at home here in Norway 🇳🇴, may it be a story that will continue to make you happy, even though the weather has been exceptionally harsh this winter, this is coming from a Norwegian born near the North Cape, so no you are not alone not liking the winters😅👍. Although the spring, summers and early fall makes a lot up for it ❤😊👍. Love from your fellow Norwegian down in the "south" now 😅👍
That is one of the most wonderful and meaningful comments I've ever received! Ty ty ty for your words! And I'm writing this while on my 10 year anniversary in Italy. You are amazing! ❤️
Stumbled over your video.....which is one of these on YT that are totally devoid of rational .....where blunt stupidity is displayed........ Why do you do it...moving to the north when it is so problematic....???? How mysterious is it that snow and ice is an obvious consequence of minus temperatures...???? Poor you that had go freezing for a whole winter .... How mysterious is it that when you're cold....well...then put some more clothing on. It is just mind blowing.....how lost it is possible to be ....and even blaming others ...who did not tell you to do something with your "horrible" life...... Even a 5 year old kid would have figured out what to do .....on their own. Reality is that most countries in Europe can have same temperature as in Oslo....it is normal. Europe is generally much further north than USA. Both northern USA (specially Montana, Dakota; Minnesota ..and so on ) and Canada will have such temperatures.
Well you still gotta pay for your doctors and dentist appointments so it’s not really “free” per say… I’m poor and it’s not exactly cheap, but we have the solution of a free card after paying over a certain amount of NOK, it’s be free.
I've waited 6-7 hours 3 times (lived here most my life) but I never found it unfair all things considered. And even when I broke my arm (buckle fract.) as a kid, I could've paid for it myself with pocket money (which I didn't really get; didn't have that "tradition") even though I had no job. I also drank some copy machine developing liquid (don't ask) as a small kid, that went quite quickly. Everything went OK in all cases. The worst was probably the fracture and a non-fracture (foot) as it was quite painful to wait (but pragmatically, no emergency). In many cases, there's also an option to go to a private practitioner. May save time but is (much) more expensive.
In Norway we have a consulting fee if you go to the doctor, begins each year at1.1., but if one reach a the amount, the government sets as a limit, you hadn't to pay anymore for this year 😀
This does not constitute a valid argument against privatized medicine. The inadequacy of U.S. healthcare does not stem from its privatized nature but rather from pervasive corruption at its core. Consequently, opting for Norway over the USA does not equate to an endorsement of socialized medicine. Just keep this very clear inside your head so you're not fooling yourself.
_"opting for Norway over the USA does not equate to an endorsement of socialized medicine."_ What on Earth are you talking about? You think he lives in Norway just for the health care? _"This does not constitute a valid argument against privatized medicine."_ It does. _"The inadequacy of U.S. healthcare does not stem from its privatized nature but rather from pervasive corruption at its core."_ Is the reason even relevant if you don't fix it? Would public health care not fix this? _"Just keep this very clear inside your head so you're not fooling yourself."_ Sounds like manipulation or dissonance (or both) with an agenda behind it. Here's the pragmatic version: USA's healthcare is extremely poorly organized Norway's healthcare system is not perfect Having such discrepancies in expenses and an opposite gap in quality is borderline insanity Admitting faults is the first steps towards reparation Using fancy words do not automatically make you rational or a reflected or unbiased person. "Just keep this very clear inside your head so you're not fooling yourself."
i have been riding dirt bikes since i was 8 or 9. what i have learned over the years is that if you come into the emergency room covered in blood and torn clothing you never wait in line. they just send you straight to the doctor.
