I like his style, the letter is titled “You Can Keep This Junk” (excerpts from Pressan.is):

I have paid all my debts religiously from the first day of the collapse. I have had enough of this society which you are taking part in creating and have moved abroad with my family. We are both college-educated and had good jobs in Iceland and there was nothing to indicate that we were about to lose them. Still we decided to get away when we saw the direction things were heading.

Those who robbed us of all our belongings still walk around and get their debts written off like there is no tomorrow but we have to pay all the unfair debts surrounding us and assume the price hikes due to the inflation which is the consequence of the business genius of these same robbers.

As the title of my letter indicates, I am seriously considering stopping paying for this bank-robbery and you can keep this house which I am supposed to “own” in Iceland, everything else has been taken away anyways.

Where I live today I have it good.  I have a good salary and a great job. What is most important is that here they handle criminals the way they ought to, and impotent politicians take responsibility for their work.

It would never be tolerated that a minister would hire his friend to a position, but then it would turn out that the friend has left behind him scorched earth wherever he has tread, gets hundreds of millions written off and jumps away from the job after one day. The minister and his friend then to appear in front of the nation to shovel more dirt onto the heap to hide the crap which has already begun building up.

No thank you and good luck with this endless comedy you so enjoy playing. For the love of God, keep acting like clowns because otherwise there will be no material for Spaugstofan and Aramotaskaupid (comedy shows).
