the Norwegians aren't paying for it through taxes...their tax rate is 28% which is actually lower than the US. They pay for their social benefits through income from oil and smart investing of those revenues.

They have almost the same tax rate as Cuba which is communist...so you cant argue that their taxes are not high.
