Yes, I did realize those numbers you mention.
As I mentioned above, the public employment numbers are, in part, a result of the NHS in the UK. All doctors, nurses, EMT’s, et al are considered public employees.
And, to not put too fine a point on it, there are many counties in the US where the public sector employment is north of 25%. They, like Scotland, tend to be rural areas with lots of ag producers.
The Scots can do what they will and maybe their economy takes a hit to the head. I’m all for breaking up the UK and getting rid of one of the largest makers of mischief in world history. These morons have sucked us into one war after another, not entirely to our benefit.

Scotland is tiny - it leaving the UK will not break up the UK in terms of influence as that is almost entirely a synonym for England.
I am English and therefore a ‘moron’ according to you - perhaps you might like to backup your ignorant rant and explain which wars we’ve sucked you into?
Now the thinking behind this i would love to read.
Still i suppose if your nation is able to be criticised for its actions ,it has at least done something worthy of note.
