The effects of the Scottish Referendum

It's Monday 15th September, a few days away from the voting day that decides if Scotland remains in the UK or go it alone.

There are many backing both sides with all sorts of reasons. I think most of them remain ignorant of the most important factors for a successful independence.

Economy and Infrastructure.

Friends and family (at least some) are at each another's throats. This issue has caused more arguments than good causes for the country of Scotland.

I will let you know my vote...it is a NO to independence based on a few things.

1) Scotland's main sources of income is dominated by revenue from the North Sea Oil...Whisky export...and taxation of All Working People.

There are other factors too but isn't large enough to be significant.

North Sea Oil WILL run out...revenue will then cease.

Whisky export will continue long after the Oil but it ain't going to be sufficient.

Taxation of the working...50% of entire Scottish population can't possibly contribute enough tax to feed the elderly, disabled, ones on benefits/welfare AND themselves. You can't spend £/$10 as if it was a £/$20. Simple math really...

2) The infrastructure DOESN'T even exist! If Scotland is to go solo...where is the tax system that will take the place of the UK one? Where is the Scottish equivalent of the DVLA who sorts out car tax and registration? Where or who is going to fund the MASSIVELY in debt NHS? The working people that's who!

3) There's talks of using the Pound Sterling as currency...flip sake!!! You may as well NOT be independent if you still want to keep that!

Or

A new currency...Scottish Pound or something like that...ok...WHAT will it be backed by? Scotland...we have no gold reserves...no silver...no commodities to back a new currency with! As for Oil...probably won't be enough to trade with...

These are only 3 of the most thought about factors...for myself...plenty more from where it came from.

Alex Salmond, you sir haven't thought this out AT ALL, NOTHING IS IN PLACE!
I'm a Chinese who was born and raised in Scotland...I love Scotland too much to let you screw her up the arse.

Scotland CAN be independent but not under your pathetic...unorganised way of doing things. Until my 3 concerning factors are answered to a highly satisfactory degree...you ain't getting my vote.

NOW FUCK OFF!!!!

Tuesday 18th December

I have been drinking for almost the whole week...about 4-5units a time and have noticed that its not good for me...I can't think straight, I can't focus, I am losing motivation and its getting very depressing. OK, my ex girlfriend has got a new boyfriend shortly after the break up...it hurts. Deal with it better! OK, there's this girl I like but doesn't feel the same...it hurts. Deal with it better! My best friend, Adam, you are an irreplaceable in every sense of the word. Thank you for being there when I needed somebody the most and for giving me good enough reasons to hang on to what is left of my sanity. Now that I've sobered up a little can I realise that I am the one stopping myself from progress of any kind. With the Xmas period round the corner, a few drinks will be fine, then afterwards I'll go 2 months without it and see what happens. During this time, I'll catch up on the reading that I have to do and get my "to do list" knuckled d...

A little confession

I did promise my girlfriend that I'd stop smoking but recently I had a few... The cause of my bad habit is stress... Some may say I'm just saying that so I have a "reason" to smoke...maybe deep down it is. It's not something I'll brag about or be proud of. Recently on a few occasions, I've viewed some flats that I really like but the problem is getting a mortgage...the banks and building societies have very very tight regulations for this now...I've been rejected numerous times. I would really like my girlfriend to move in with me so I don't have to wait a week each time to see her... I would love to have my own home to go home to...but it ties in the fact that I cannot get a mortgage. Some dumb twit opened the door on my car yesterday while i was working! In the next couple of weeks, my boss will have a few important friends and fellow business men coming from London and China. These people are very successful in their respective fields of ...
