...American neo-liberalism? No shot, in Norway we are seeing a return of poverty, and it's mostly thanks to new public management and the two massive neo-liberal parties that front US ans UK economic policies.

Yes, it really is that bad. My job now is to remind everyone continually that poverty will grow, because as per usual, the politicians responsible will try to find a scapegoat.

It might be the socialist, might be brown and black people, might be the Jew, heck: it most likely will be the Polish who get blamed for the insane policies are being fronted.

So yeah, neo-liberalism, the political enabler of capitalism, is currently our biggest problem - but it shows, through deforestation, consolidation of ownership, the indirect banning of cooperatives, the milking of the European energy market at the expense of Norwegians, everything being centralised, ownership wise, and the propaganda and talking points remain the same.

Our politicians are gutless shills for yankie ambitions. Former prime minister and leader of the right wing party Erna Solberg has a large fucking painting of Ronald Reagen on her wall, and she was recently embroiled in a conflict of interests case, where her husband got favourable government contracts for his parking company.

Of course it had to be fucking parking.

Økokrim, the national economic crimes division, refused to actually investigate the situation, and all the neo-liberal fucks, including the other massive neo-liberal party (AP, or "the labour party"), who probably also are falling deeper into corruption, let it slide.

So yeah, poverty is on the rise, and crime will rise with it. When it reaches boiling point, you can bet I'll have to verbally smack people in the face once the people in power have decided upon a scapegoat.

I'm betting Polish and Slavic people, or Africans. Anyone except the political and economic precedent set by the politicians in power.
