[…] yeah, you folks over at Outside In and your Dependency Culture. It wasn’t that, although there’s no doubt that played a role for many of the No votes. […]

Better luck next time. Younger Scots were disproportionately in favor i hear, so it might just be a matter of demographic turnover. Maybe it will be Catalonia or Flanders which inspires Scotland, rather than the other way around. Still, a disappointment.

Piglets don’t vote to be weaned from the teat.

Anyhow, it’s hard to see that much was at stake here. The Scots were contemplating simplifying their layers of potemkin democracy from three to two, but eventually opted for Cameron’s promise of making their first layer of potemkin democracy even more theatrical.

‘The Emperor Has No Clothes’ wasn’t on the ballot. The only question presented was how dazzly his pretend finery is to be.

Structurally, a good secession.

But expecting socialists to be independent?

It really was a fool’s chance in hell.

Ah, so no true Scotsman would have voted for independence…

Scotland is not some oppressed colony. If anything, they have had disproportionate power, pushing England far into leftist insanity and being over-represented among recent prime ministers.

For Scotland, independence would have reduced its power, not increased it.
