Iceland

I've been away for a while, but a lot has been happening. Listened yesterday to this fascinating interview with an Icelandic Member of Parliament, describing how her country was brought to the edge of destruction, and went from one of the healthiest economies in the world to one of the worst, in a matter of months. As she says, this could happen to any country at any time, and everyone ought to be aware of this fact. In six parts, of ten minutes, well worth the time:
