What's worse than both the climate crisis and the financial crisis?

From the point of view of Per Willy Amundsen, a Norwegian politican, apparently nothing is worse than the future immigration. He represents a party that demands to stop the immigration, especially muslims, because they worry about the future integration and increasing amounts of "parasites". The statements of P. Willy is quite shocking to me. Now, the global financial crisis strikes our small and open economy with great force. The result is fast increasing unemployment. And the climate crisis will require heavy investments in the future to avoid very serious global changes. Unfortunately, both come at the same time.



On second thought, the statement isn't that shocking after all. That is because his party (Fremskrittspartiet) wants to leave the control to the market forces. Profit is most desireable for them. And global warming, which isn't especially profitable, is actually out of the question. They deny the claims of global warming, unlike the other parties in Norway. And the financial crisis problably isn't that bad either, because they believe in the market. What cannot the market handle? (Is there any kind of lord that controls the economy?) The global warming and the financial crisis isn't a problem after all.

Fortunately for us, Norway have good regulations of the market, oil and other great resources to meet these challenges. What ever we do, there is always an alternative to buy us free. But we seem to not handle integration. Of course, both foreigners and the ethnic Norwegians are involved in this soup. The main reason that immigration take place is the need for employees. And for a second reason, love is crossing borders. Therefore, our country should be thankful to foreigners efford and love. Thank you!

Let's look on the graph below. It shows the increasing immigration to Norway. In 2060, it is expected that one out of four citizens is an "immigrant". But it's hard to define when an immigrant becomes a Norwegian.

It's not a good idea to look back to the 1950s, when Norway was a monoculture of ethnical Norwegians, only to think of they as real Norwegians. Oslo is today multicultural. But people are scared of changes. Changes that they aren't scared of once they become a reality. Like immigration to Oslo.

Good night!
