You are right, Ammo, the "stupid socialists" would have not let it happen.
The reason these guys are worth so much is because "stupid Socialists" lost the 1997 election and the Norwegian government shifted to the right.
The reason these guys are worth so much is because in 1998, the now centrist government excluded Socialists and allowed investments up to 40% (later raised to 70%) in the global stock markets.
The reason these guys are worth so much is because the epitome of capitalism, its very engine, the stock market, is what grew the fund at 5% year since their decision to invest.
The reason these guys are worth so much is because "stupid Socialists" had been sidelined and had nothing to do with it, showing them to be, indeed, stupid.....
