Iceland was the brave bank-sacrificing outlier/dissonant.
Looking back, nothing really "radicalized" me more than watching 2008 unfold from a good vantage point.
I had argued myself to the effect that there isn't enough money to save the world - and then saw a bottomless purse open in mere weeks to save the banks, and especially the bankers.

Not while they continue to reinforce their Brexit red lines.
The amount of money being left on the table by not seeking to rejoin the EU is eye-watering.
The tax lost to Brexit would have paid for everything Labour needed.

SJC is wrong, uphold human rights and due process for migrants
Text SIGN PUNDGT to 50409 — The Supreme Court's decision to allow swift deportation of migrants to locations other than their home countries is an egregious violation of human rights and due process. Deporting individuals to unsafe third countries like South Sudan, which is plagued by violence and turmoil, exposes them to grave risks of torture, persecution, and even death.
Justice Sotomayor rightly condemned this order, warning that it puts "thousands to the risk of torture or death." This callous disregard for human life and dignity is unacceptable. The government's actions defy basic principles of justice and fairness. Denying migrants a meaningful opportunity to challenge deportations to potentially dangerous third countries tramples on their legal rights.
As Justice Sotomayor stated, the Trump regime feels "unconstrained by law, free to deport anyone anywhere without notice or an opportunity to be heard." This arbitrary exercise of power cannot be tolerated in a nation built on the rule of law. Congress must act swiftly to counter this miscarriage of justice.
Passing legislation to ensure robust due process protections for all deportation proceedings, including the right to contest removal to third countries, is imperative. The human cost of allowing these deportations to proceed unchecked is simply too high. Lawmakers have a moral obligation to rein in this unconscionable policy and uphold America's commitment to human rights and fair treatment under the law.
