Those businesses were handed over to the people, not the state? Honest question.

Agreed, just warning you next time you are in Norge, as if you go there frequently. It is nice to have a laugh, considering all of the sourpuss posts.
Edit: In reality, us Norwegians, the Danes, and Swedes all share the same blood.

No, they were "collectivized" - confiscated by the State "on behalf of the people and for the good of the revolution". Most of the family farms were not "businesses" per se, they were just small farms to feed a family, although some of the produce from them sometimes found it's way to roadside "markets".

I don't go there very often - it's too close to Sweden, and I think I've been banned from Sweden for pissing off some "Faltskog" being that claimed to be a woman. I'd hate to accidentally cross a border while jogging and get tossed into a Swedish prison!

I know that I will probably look like an ass for this, but would you really be jailed for going to Sweden? Also, I am not sure of the Swedish definition, but faltskog? A dead forest? Is that slang there for something?
Your heritage secret is safe with me - I won't tell anybody about the common blood!

Did you know the fascist and communist movements were both planed funded and implemented by financial operatives from the City of London ?
At the present moment a kind of Socialism for the capitalists is being created. It is very modest. It contents itself with the transformation of certain industries into public services. Above all, it does not compromise one. On the contrary it will rally a good number of capitalists.
They are told: Look at the Post Office, that is a Socialist public service, functioning admirably to the profit of the community, and more cheaply than if it were entrusted to a private company as was formerly the case. The gas supply, the railways and the building of workmen’s dwellings must also become public services. They will function to the profit of the community and will chiefly benefit the capitalist class.
In capitalist society, the transformation of certain industries into municipal or national services is the last form of capitalist exploitation. It is because that form presents multiple and incontestable advantages for the bourgeoisie that in every capitalist country the same industries are becoming nationalised (Army, Police, Post Office, Telegraphs, the Mint, etc.).
