And that isn't what should happen in a democracy. What percentage of Norway would really be willing to sacrifice their pensions for this? I don't know but I would bet a lot it's single digit percentage at most.

So this show is exactly what should happen in a democracy, isn't it?

I think you subestimate the mount of decency it exist in Norway. But i do agree that Far Right Players always focus on the feelings of pepple, and the less educated react strongly against scarcity. Easy targets.

The fact it’s benign means something, I guess. Slippery slope perhaps, but in this matter at this moment it doesn’t have any hope of changing anything.

Luckily, even if their MS investment goes to 0, it wouldn't be "sacrificing their pensions". Around 2.5% of the wealth fund is invested in MS, so it seems to line up pretty well with your "single digit percentage at most."
