why doesn't bill gates bail out iceland?

[sverdslynger]

doing business with russia is suicide. but if iceland has no choice i understand it..

@fullspeedsilent Bill Gates took his I.T course's in Iceland. He could thank Iceland by paying the little land out. But if he were to pay it all then 40% of his entire money is gone!

Then america and united kingdom would want to be bailed out! america would take a good 30% and england would take a good 20%. leaving the ol' bloke out with only 20% of all is money.

:/

Norway should get the f*** out of Schengen and the EØS, and make a personal trade union with Sweden and Iceland.

Go kill yourself.

Norway should dontate money to Iceland for free, we can afford to spit out uncontrolled billions in corrupt regimes, but not our fellow Nordic Country...

drake2919 -- RUSSIA has almost no national debt .. it is around 5 billion , on a 6 trillion economy, it is almost nothing, RUSSIA has a lot of DOLLARS in their banks , THEY are getting rid of them, CAUSE USA gov. will have to print money to save those companies in USA and DOLLAR value is going down , YOU can have 1 trillion dollars in reserves but they are going to be worthless.

[drake2919]

Because USA has no real cash. Government is 11 trillion in RED. That 800 billion will come from China or they can simply print it out, screwing the dollar's value even more. Russia on the other hand, has no debt, and over half a trillion in cold hard cash, Euros and Dollars.
