The romantic in me wants an independent Scotland where Bonnie Prince Charley won the rebellion.
The realist in me thinks that counting on a revenue stream from North Sea oil is a BAD idea. It is never a good idea to "put all your eggs in one basket".
I believe that all countries are going to have to learn to work together. A UNITED EUROPE was possible because of the example set by the United Kingdom of Great Britain.and the United States of America.
I know that being UNITED is sometimes a drag. Ask me how I feel about our federal policy toward marijuana.
A democracy means PATIENCE. It takes a long time for us all to agree on anything.
Now Scotland is voting, which is the way we solve these things in a democracy.
I just hope Scotland does not vote "yes" just because of a three hundred year old grudge.
THE PAST MATTERS, BUT THE FUTURE IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE PAST.
