Norway and the US are very different in terms of size, diversity, economic output, geography ... pretty much everything. Saying that something works for Norway isn't really a good reason to adopt it in the US.

There's a whole world running experiments on how to best do things, but you're unwilling to look at the results because it's not a perfect match. It's never a perfect match. It doesn't mean you can't adapt lessons learned elsewhere, or that you can afford to ignore what works in other countries.
