@yogthos yea I want to improve the world while many Americans only want to cheat more people and get ahead by pushing others behind. Rentier economics was always the most efficient way to do that. There are powerful disincentives to do new and useful things in the US now. Norway is so much better in this respect because the government extensively supports capital investment to do new things rather than relying on private capital alone. People there are less cruel and selfish, too.
