Here’s the thing. They kind of do have socialism. The government has a controlling interest in their biggest industry. They also have a government that is very responsive to the people. I’d argue they have one of the most successful examples of socialism in the world.
They don’t advertise it. I’ve seen a right wing guy identify them as such, and then praising the Anders attack from 20 years ago as punishment for their socialism. I think it was the chinless guy who follows Theil around.
In the early 20th century, about 50 years before Norway discovered oil, they were already per capita among the richest countries in Europe. This was because of their culture of land and resource sharing.

Imagine naming yourself SpaceCowboy, but not understanding that Cowboy Bebop is an obvious critique of capitalism.
Imagine thinking the term Space Cowboy originated in a cartoon made in 1998.
Here’s a cool song that was apparently inspired by Cowboy Bebop LOL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h66V1hYAjG0
OK, boomer.
I’m sure they’re only called space cowboy because gangster of love was taken
Ah yes, Steve “[the left is] as unpleasant as the people on the extreme right” Miller. That clears things up nicely.

Norway’s oil profit all goes to their sovereign fund and does not enter their national budget.
