I do wonder whether they will conclude that full independence is not
worth the cost and the effort when they start making plans.


I tend to think that, in the event of a Yes vote, Salmond will not let
independence fail. Money will be thrown at whatever problems arise for
a good few years, even if doing so means passing mountainous debts to
generations as yet unborn.

This is Wee Eck's big moment. This is his moment to go down in history
as the man who led Scotland to independence. He will not, cannot, let a
Yes vote fail.



The silly little ****er will be going full circle back to the Darien
Scheme

http://www.historic-uk.com/HistoryUK...Darien-Scheme/

"Scotland had paid a terrible price with more than two thousand lives
lost. Together with the loss of the £500,000 investment the Scottish
economy was almost bankrupted. It has been argued that the Darien Scheme
crippled the country's economy to such an extent that it triggered the
dissolution of the Scottish Parliament and led to the 1707 Act of Union
with England."
