The Scots seem to presently exist on welfare, government jobs and above all, money-printing and debt from the BOE. Salmond and the SNP are liars, whose only hope seems to be that oil will allow them to be independent, and have even more welfare. Maybe, maybe not.
Anyway, as a disinterested observer, I'd like to see them try, just to see the results. We can always learn something new.
The problem is that how can a government of hard leftists fund all of their welfare and freebies on a substance that they consider to be evil?
And obama will have a location to work as a consultant once he’s through turning the US into a socialist paradise.
I tend to agree...Id like to see independence, but the basis of this is more of a chance to rape the more well off, including evil corporations. They may end up with a mass exodus of talented people heading south.
