The sad thing is, Scotland is the 14th richest country in the world by gdp per head and it could be a fantastic country to live in if the right people with work ethic were in charge.
Unfortunately we have 2 sectors of lazy bastards who will make it into a socialist utopia until it's fucked.
1. The long term unemployed who create illegitimate children to get as much free housing and benefits as possible.
2. Public sector workers who are mainly lazy and always get the 20 sick days per year they are entitled to as well as great government pensions etc.
If we could create a new Fair Society party whose goal is to reward those who actually work and penalise the lazy bastards (and mass sterilisation of the workshy would be a good start) then Scotland could be great.
I am enjoying the way the London based tory, labour and liberal bastards are shitting themselves now because the remaining UK will drop to 18th in world wealth if Scotland leaves and takes it's oil and gas reserves with it. Scotland contributes more into the UK economy than it takes out in public spending and the UK government bastards are terrified this becomes public knowledge.
I laughed at the banks declaring yesterday that they may leave Scotland if the vote is YES. Well these c.unts fucked up the world economy and have been bailed out by hundreds of billions of pounds of taxpayers money so if they want to leave then good fuckin riddance and good luck to England having to cope with the debt on it's own.
All things considered, I do not yet know whether to vote yes or no. I own 3 thriving businesses and the SNP Scottish government have always been fully supportive of them. If we can get the work shy and public service workers into meaningful work, Scotland will be a great place to be.
You're not actually offering workable solutions. While I would enjoy the mass sterilizations (or killings, either either) of unemployable irrelevant scumbags, it's not going to happen.
And the governments never 'gave' the banks 100s of billions of pounds. They guaranteed the debts and continuity. Very little money exchanged hands. But the media never let facts get in their way. And even if money did exchange hands, new money will be dreamed up. It's not as if it's some secret sauce all the way from the outer edges of Neptune that's finite. It can be created until you run out of space for all the keyboard zeros. Well, not 'you'. But those you'll never see or hear of.
I do hope the Scots get what they want. But I can't help but feel that Salmond is basing his legacy on this and trying to ram it through for reasons of personal glory. It should always, always be of the benefit of the greater good.
Wouldn't that be a sight.
