Talk:Economy of Iceland

message: Might the HID index in the first sentence be out of place, when it's not specifically economic, but includes all of these:
Life expectancy, literacy, education, standard of living, and GDP per capita for countries worldwide. It is a standard means of measuring well-being, especially child welfare.
The economy of Iceland is small but well-developed (most developed in the world according to United Nations Human Development Index), with a gross domestic product estimated at US $ 12.172 billion (132nd of 227 countries) in 2005 (and a per capita GDP of $40,277, which is among the world's highest.) Doesn't have a nice flow.
Wouldn't GDP per capita or similar index be a more correct purely economically?

message: The infobox has 12b GDP and nearly 10b in government revenues. Is this correct, as it would suggest an average tax rate of about 80%? --86.162.175.76 (talk) 00:57, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Either of the number is probably incorrectly dated. The CIA factbook currently says 11.9 billion USD in GDP and 4.8 billion USD in government revenue. --Bjarki (talk) 01:24, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
