The system, who work in my neck of the wood is sosial-democraty, a system where the government have a large part of what happend in a country, but where the private also have a large part of the economy.. At present the system is 40/60, where the private is in sharge of 60 percent of economy, but where the government, by laws and by economical ties have a 40 percent shunck of what exist on the marked... It means also that the government have a large role in the economy, becouse the state is the most "powerfull" part of the marked and can in some degree have oversight over the system.. The Government also have a lot of control over the Bank systems, mostly becouse in the early 1990s the State had to help out the banks who in other means would have broken down becouse of economical troubles.. After the economy was fixed, the government ended up with a large responsibility, even after selling out a lot of stocks to the private, the government had a lot of stocks, and desided that they wanted to keep an aye on what the banks did... Today the banks is solid as rocks, or at least solvent. And our economy have survived withouth been hit to hard by the ressesion.. Some hit have the economy had, but compared to most others, we are still in the green economical... Thanks to a government who dosen't spend to mutch - and have a lot of money in the bank

But to be fair, in my neck of the wood, the STATE have allways had a large control over the economy, even when the formal rule was not to easy from our capital in Kopenhagen, the government even then had a fair control of what happend in Norway... Specially economical, and the State have allways been there to build up things, like our mines, our roads and so on. No private enterpise have been rich enough to by themself build the infrastructure....

It is not a perfect system, but it works.. And we also have a decent "workers right" in our neck of the wood. Mutch thanks to our different government who since the 1800s have build up the econical and public system we have today.. Its a lot of proes and a lot of nais in the system.. But for Norway it works.. Pretty well to.. our welfare system is something most americans would find amazing if they ever was to wisit Norway.. And maybe unbelivable.. For in most part, it is little unbelivable our welfare, and healtcare system..
