The main problem (Icesave) poses to Icelandic public finances is that the British and Dutch governments have enough political clout to block any financial aid to Iceland, be it from the IMF, Scandinavia or the EU, unless the issue has been solved
We also know from etiological evidence that in countries like Norway or Iceland or Japan, the prevalence for instance for bipolar disorder is significantly lower
