Norway is de facto part of the EU and they DO share those oil shekels

>For the period 2009 - 2014, Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein contribute to reducing social and economic disparities in Europe and to strengthening bilateral relations with 16 countries in Central and Southern Europe through the EEA and Norway Grants.

>A total of 1.79 billion euro has been set aside under the Grants for this five year programme period. Norway provides around 97 per cent of the funding. The beneficiary states are Poland, Romania, Hungary, Czech Republic, Bulgaria, Lithuania, Slovakia, Latvia, Greece, Portugal, Estonia, Spain, Slovenia, Cyprus, Malta and since July 2013 Croatia.

That's not all, they also pay in other areas, but it is illustrative.

Norway is also part of Schengen, unlike the UK. They have more per capita immigration than the UK.

>We pay, but have no say: that’s the reality of Norway’s relationship with the EU

>As an EEA member, we do not participate in decision-making in Brussels, but we loyally abide by Brussels’ decisions. We have incorporated approximately three-quarters of all EU legislative acts into Norwegian legislation – and counting. We have legally secured access to the single market, and we practise the free movement of people, goods, services and capital. Norway is more closely integrated into many aspects of the EU than even some of the EU’s members. Our subscription to freedom of movement and our membership of the Schengen area means that Norway has even higher per capita immigration than Britain.

I don't get it. /int/ believes in a fantasy Norway which doesn't exist even when I post sourced facts in the thread...

you try being surrounded by EU members, all trade between euros depend on EU regulations

it would probably hurt our economy if we were too stubborn
