My fellow Norwegians, including our economists it seems, perceive the transfer from the oil fund (Norway's pensiom fund), which makes up 21.8% of the Norwegian state's budget, as some sort of gift from the government or a gift from the nature to the citizens.



However, considering that the state is just an institution that manages the pension fund on our behalf, meaning - the fund is the citizens' wealth, the transfer from the fund to the public budget in reality is a wealth tax, just like any other wealth tax.

I've got big fish to fry, so thx for sharing.
