Norway is the only country in the world that is filthy rich in natural resources that has somehow prevented it from fucking them up politically.
Theyre clearly doing something right but it's something nobody else seems to be able to replicate.
Iraq, Libya, Saudi Arabia, Subsaharan Africa, Venezuela, etc. - this is what it is typically like to be very, very rich in natural resources.
Even Australia's political system has been badly affected by being resource wealthy - look at the influence Gina has.
