I think the problem would be really fucking rich Americans moving or buying second homes in Norway and causing property values to 5x.

Immigration in general isn’t a moral good or moral bad. It’s just public policy. At least in my view.

We have that problem in the UK, especially London. Rich Russians, Chinese, and from just about everywhere else.

If Norway does not make an exemption for rich people to come in if they want to, its very unusual. Generally, if you are rich, you can visit or live in anywhere you want. I can think of multiple cases where rich people with histories of serious crime or links to organised crime have no problem travelling to multiple countries.


It would be both situations that would have large undesirable consequences (as well as a positive impact as well)
