There was an article on the Pirate Party yesterday. If you read between the lines, they are basically a bunch of REAL Fascists, trying to disguise themselves as populists to achieve political power (similar to the left in this country, but even worse). Thankfully the people of Iceland have better things to do other than throw away their very successful country.
Unlike this country, they actually send corrupt banker TO JAIL - if only for a few years, but still these ‘bankers’ have to find a new line of work.

As a conservative, I am suspicious of left-anarchist movements, whether Occupy Wall Street in this country (remember them?) or Podemos in Spain or Syriza in Greece. Just the idea that there is an easy answer to the problems of the world kind of scares me. We are fallen creatures and should always be suspicious of each other and of ourselves as well. There are no easy solutions, but with work and patience, we can have an increasingly better life. Since they gave the Nobel Prize in literature to Bob Dylan, perhaps they should give one to Hugh Laurie for his Dylan-like “Protest Song:”
