(27,137 posts)Look Iceland, you did good with the bankers and crooked politicians and everything. And enforcing existing laws against FRAUD like everyone else should have. But that doesn't mean you've got all the options on how to insure a healthy respect for the will of the people, and certainly not insofar as the people's right to privacy is concerned.
Yet, I can also understand that you have an ulterior motive here. The saving of what you see as wasted sperm and egg impregnation opportunities. We realize that you're population diversity is very, very limited and that accidental incest is a big issue for you.
On the other hand, your citizenship requirements require that a person learn the Icelandic language (not the easiest of tasks, which I'm sure is the point). But it severely reduces opportunities to increase population diversity as well. So we get it. Exclusivity. And now censorship.
So let me see if I have this straight: You live on a cold, barren rock in the North Atlantic, with active volcanoes and lava flowing underground giving you free heat and hot water, but also a land where almost everyone is your cousin. There's little to do, all the fast food restaurants left during the financial crisis and today with your financial recovery you find yourselves richer, healthier and robust. Full of all kinds of vim and vigor -- but: COUSINS.
- So. What'll you do? Why let's cut off the only source of recreation and sexual release that's left, that's what!
