If this is your take, you've missed the point. I said there is no reason good bits can't be adapted to one's society. it isn't that one system will work for everywhere or that it'll even look the same. Some things are unique to Norway, but other things definitely are pretty widespread.

You see this with healthcare in different places: Details change and sometimes it is lacking, but lots of places offer healthcare to its citizens that is low-cost to free when you need it. There is a lot of variation in what countries can do. Some places are poor but still manage to a point. Some places just refuse, like the US - heck, the US has oil and could have funded things for its citizens and keeps bragging about being rich, but they aren't gonna use it for the immediate welfare of its citizens.
