Put Two and Two Together
Thought for the day “If you do not live for something then you will die for nothing”
“The boisterous sea of liberty is never without a wave.” Thomas Jefferson
Very surprising in Norway that people are not putting two and two together. Probably the same situation around Europe too. According to the newspapers, more than 65 000 people from Ukraine have come to Norway since the war started. Recently that number has been increasing by around 1000 new people each week.
A quick read of the Norwegian newspapers will show the problems and long waiting times that people are having to get appointments for visits to doctors and hospitals. Students are having problems to find apartments to rent, and prices for rentals have increased a lot. Supply and demand.
But people do not seem to be putting two and two together. More than 65 000 extra people in Norway from Ukraine and now a shortage of apartments and problems to get appoints for medical matters. And yet the Norwegian government is continuing to let in large numbers of people from Ukraine each week, so those problems will just get worse and worse.
But people do not seem to realize the connection. Rather obvious to me. Much like the captain of the Titanic saying that the Titanic is on course but it is the iceberg which must get out of the way.
When will Norwegian people wake up ??
