Causes of Inequality and Poverty in Norway

 In Norway, there's not much inequality of opportunities among citizens. Norwegian values are based on equality for everyone, and most Norwegians believe in equal distribution of wealth and equal opportunities.  Particularly with gender, there is not much discrimination in Norway.

From 2015 to 2018 the AD curve would've most likely kept shifting to the right because of the rising levels of consumer and government spending, however the balance of trade chart indicates that Norway experienced trade deficits which would slow the rate at which the AD curve shifts to the right. From 2018 to 2020, the AD curve most likely continued shifting to the right since consumer and government spending were rising, however once again, Norway experienced a decrease in balance of trade levels, but it started rising again by 2020. Based on the last blog, Norway's real GDP h...
