The fishing thing is almost 40% of our export.

We cannot even keep up with the EU-lite regulations today.

But anyways, the vote is most certainly, but close, no.

I'm not saying that Iceland should join the EU. Nor that it shouldn't. I don't live in Iceland.

I was explaining to the commenter above me that Iceland already has to comply to EU regulations, because he seemed unaware of that.

Unsurprisingly, every thread on HN that mention EU seems to attract all sorts of people that have absolutely no idea of what the hell they are talking about.
