It sure does.

Foreign debt has risen to more than five times the value of
its GDP, and Iceland's Central Bank has raised short-term
interest rates to nearly 15% in 2007.

Iceland population is 316,000 -g-

I wonder how Iceland can run a government. I mean, even
foreign embassies, consulates and such. There are not
many. -g- The country's
population is similar to that of US small city, the work force
is probably around 100K-150K. They can't afford a government.
Maybe that's why they are #4 <GGG>
