I don't buy the whole story he gives on Iceland. It seems an oversimplification to say that maturity and currency mismatching occurred because of implicit bailout guarantees. It also happens when people can get rich from doing it.

I see a lack of financial regulation as a type of socialism as well. When there are no rules, that is a rule in of itself.
