How Feasible Would It Be To Create A Little Norway In The United?
The way by which places become states in the US is primarily connected to whether the place is politically liberal or conservative. Preserving somewhat of a balance is important. In order for Norway to be admitted, which would make it one of the most liberal states, another territory - a conservative one with a similar quantity of electoral votes would have to be considered at or around the same time. In addition to this, Norway's royal family would have to change their status as the sovereign would no longer be the sovereign. This would come at a price. Their government would also go away.

The problem is that the welfare state is a massive barrier to immigration. If you want to work, you have to find a job, which generally means you get paid a wage equivalent to the cost of living. In the long run we would probably be better off subsidizing housing, food and transport as well. We would also have much smaller state services such as health and education, but.
