And therein lies one of the major stumbling blocks to any solution, blame. Can I blame the moon for replacing the sun at night? Sure, but where would it get me? Nowhere of course. Can I install electric lights so I can see again at night? Sure. that would be called a "solution" and it would take money, time and most importantly, work.

I think it will all work out in the long run if we can avoid destroying the planet or ourselves in the process but, we have to learn to accept failure right along with success. One does not exist without the other. It's like the people who continually DDOS this forum. Exactly what do they hope to gain? If it is a personal attack on theymos, they are just wasting their time. If it is a global attack on Bitcoin or crypto in general, they are still wasting their time, there are plenty of other places to discuss crypto and a few angry script kiddies aren't going to change anything.

It is ineffective in achieving whatever goal they have in mind yet they keep doing it. We need to stop "doing it" just because we can and work together toward the goal of transforming governments and social structures so they work with the people and for the people not against the people. Remember NOTHING is impossible, there is a peaceful solution to every problem as long as you have a bigger gun... 

 

We can certainly agree on that. Common ground I would think.

Maybe we should blame the older generation for not teaching the young what a ballot box is, after all, 'Bregzit' might not have happened if the youth turnout matched the pensioner turnout.
Or maybe we should blame the establishment for distracting the young with celebritism and consumer gadgets.
Or maybe we should blame the establishment for pampering to the old's feeling of wealth since they are more likely to vote.
Or maybe we should blame the establishment for redirecting money creation from loans for business generation, towards loans for existing housing supply and consumerism, leading to an asset price explosion and an indebted and economically enslaved younger generation who for the first time in decades will be much worse off than those who lived before.

at least we can agree that there's a lot of messed up with both generations

Right after the elections every member of the parliament got salary increase up to 340.000kr   3018$   4,274 BTC   22.777 AUR

I don't speak for my generation, a lot of them are pretty screwed up but, we didn't cause all the worlds problems nor can we fix them so, have at it and, good luck! 
 

lol, most of you are regressive. hit a nerve I see

Interesting considering that "1950's generation" invented the technology you are using to make that statement. The problem is the senile politicians and bankers who can barely get out their easy chairs telling the rest of us how things need to be done. I'm part of the 50's generation and I, and many of my friends and relatives don't like the current state of affairs any more than you do. I was part of the "digital revolution" and still am. The problem is not us, its you and us and everyone because if we could all settle on one course of direction, the world would move toward it. But that would hinder individual thought and everyone's "right" to be anything they want no matter how ridiculous, offensive, stupid or downright dangerous that might be.

It's the fact that we are so splintered in our views and believes that there is little to no progress being made on many fronts. The guys from the 40's still run the governments for the most part, you know, the ones they wheel in wearing a bib....

PS: Not many of us are set to "enjoy our retirement" as most of us won't be able to afford to retire.

It will take a few days to find out what coalition will be formed.

There will have to be 3-5 parties in coalition to create any government in Iceland. We have had a history of two parties creating a coalition government but 3 or more party government has never held and always crumbled.

Most likely results are a 1 person majority of (Indipendance party, Regeneration and Bright Future) or 3 person majority (Pirates, Regeneration , Bright Future, Left-Green, Social Democratic)

I see you have the similar problems as in the USA, that 1950s generation sure don't want to let us run the world.

Babyboomers messed up the world, blame us, and now we have to fix it so they can enjoy their retirement 

I think it's good that the Pirate party didn't win this election. I'm an Pirate party supporter my self
Winning the next one will be better

There are many things that can go wrong here in the next 4 years and it would all been blamed on the Pirate party. because many people here fear the Pirate party, guess who?

I'm 25 years old and my generation is getting really tired of the corruption here, more and more young Icelanders are moving out of the country thanks to high interest rates on loans
and over priced apartments. The health care system is been cut down, the police and the education. the food price is going up, they increase tax on food from 7% to 11% so they can decrease tax on
electronics :/  they say that the purchasing power is up and every one is happy, nothing has happened and everything is on the right track. except they are for getting the young people, old people, the disabled people, the police, the whole health care system and education system.

it will be interesting to see how they are going to fix all these problems when they don't even want to pay their taxes

I don't see the Pirates being part of any coalition.  More work needed.

Independence party have 21 seats.

Left Green Movement have 10 seats.

Majority vote in the last government was 38, i'm assuming it's gonna be roughly the same.

That does leave them short of seats.

The Pirate Party gained 10 seats, do you think it's possible for a 3 party coalition? they would be short on a majority vote with 31 seats.

The Pirates will likely be frozen out of a coalition.

Nothing at the moment, only news are the president that holds the power to assign coalition discussions will talk first to the Independence party that got the highest votes

Coalition in the pipeline?

When the votes are officially counted! Expected early today though.

Looks like the Pirate Party are 3rd at this point, what is the official time for the end of the vote?

Both yes and no. I could write an IOU for a thousand euro's on one piece of paper, and write a 1000 euro's on another piece of paper, but I doubt anyone would accept the latter. But yes, this is what banks do with fictional reserve banking. They credit one account with a 1000 euro's, and debit another account for a 1000 euro's at the same time.

To make things even more convoluted, anybody can issue their own euros (for example), simply by writing an IOU. This is effectively what banks do, making their version of the currency (theoretically) less valuable than euros issued by the ECB (sovereign money), simply because the private banks are less reliable issuers.
