As many of you know Norway is a functioning welfare state. We have loads of money in our oilfund, so the state finance is secure.
But for the last 6 years, the private sector have gotten better pay rises than the public sector. Teachers have also been getting the worst pay rises among public sector employees...
(same with nurses, they are paid shit. I don't see why anyone should study 3 years at a college to become a nurse after high school)
This year the teachers got offered less than inflation, even if we last years was promised a real rise.
Generally speaking the rising difference between pay in the public sector and the private sector has become so big, specially for those with higher eduction, that it's no longer any point to study to become a public sector employee. In fact, you would be better off just taking high school and getting a job in the industrial sector.

Belgium is the only country in Europe that has an authomatic index, based on the inflation. So every year, sometimes earlier, our Salary gets adjusted to the index (it's never much though). This exactly to prevent people suffering inflation.
