Welcome to surviving socialism, you can call me CamCam for now.  I'd rather not use my real name at the moment, considering that I will be sharing a good deal about work situations and so forth.

Let me introduce myself a little.  I am an American, that has been living in Socialist Norway for the past 9 plus years, am 32 years old, and you could call me a libertarian before you could call me anything else.

I finally have made the push to move out of this nightmare, and try my hand back in the good old US of A.  In three months time I will be gone, and gone forever.  No longer will I have piles of Norwegian lazies clinging to my back.

My time here has been incredibly frustrating, as dealing with socialism is for any hard worker attempting to reach his or her goals.  Up until now, I have recalled these experiences one by one occasionally whenever asked, or the topic of socialism has come up.  I've realized how little of an affect I have been having.  What I need is a place to scribe these experiences, where I can send people.  My memory is fickle, and I just don't trust that I will have the ability to convey my experiences say, ten years down the road.

My goal is simple; to convey to anyone willing to read, the practical examples of living with socialism.  I've realized that most people have no idea what actual daily socialistic living is like.  They hear ideas of Bernie Sanders, or conversations among progressive; but they have no idea the frustrations one actually encounters.  I intend to tell them.  Some examples are current; my last days here in the country; but I also intend to recall past experiences and tell those as well.

Remember; I am no author, and I just don't have the time to dig up law.  These will be candid examples of my day to day life here.  Some examples might bore, others will hopefully make your chin drop.  I want the reader to come away with the crystal clear opinion that, "I never want to live that way."

Onward to my most recent example, which you will find in my next post.  Thanks for reading!  Let's wake up the people, and show them that this parasitic dependency on both the state, and others hard work not only isn't sustainable, but downright wasteful, and morally wrong.  The truth is simple, we all deserve better than what socialism has to offer
