Now it's iceland's banks  that go bankrupt, but suppose the Swiss banks wll go bankrupt or the cayman islands (more likely), then we will have fun. Nothing is sure these days.

cynically yours,

It was funny when the cartoon character "Bender" said it (the context was  different).  But I'm not laughing now and hopefully my dumb tagline didn't insult anyone. I deleted it. If it did insult I am truly sorry. It was never my intention.
It is just insane to witness whats going on in the world. I guess it really is true what they say; that if  America sneezes the rest of the world catches a cold. I live in a very small country and somehow it is now that I truly realize just how small and powerless my country is in a global scale. It's all up to USA and EU to decide what will happen next. Democracy or not. I have no say in what goes on at the global markets. I can vote but I have no say in how the banks operate.  And it seems the Banks and the big corporations have ruled the world more than the politicians. Or maybe the politicians were willing partners to crooked bankers. I never wanted to really believe that but that's how I feel right now.
In some ways it feels like the death of an ideology. Unregulated capitalism maybe at an end.
