UK is an Islamic state now who supports ISIS and that's why based Scotland is leaving and taking their economy and dignity with them. Fuck the UK in 1939 and fuck them still today.

Scottish secession as about as workable as Texas secession.

Scotland would be the 14th biggest economy and England the 18th. They can work it out and won't be slow killed through immigration.

>not realizing that scotland has oil and would be the 14th biggest world economy

some of you guys don't even think before you speak. this would hurt england really badly or they wouldn't be fighting so hard to keep them from leaving. lol the pound devaluing without all that scottish oil to back it.

That oil has run its course. It's gotten so much easier to get oil fracking, why go offshore. Norway, who knew how to properly deal with the big oil companies in offshore oil, is reinvesting in renewables.
And England has no giant desire to keep Scotland, it actually works out better for both. But Scotland would be far bigger loser if they part ways.

[Wild Cobra]

What's it look like when cost of living is factored in?

[Blizzardwizard]

As said above, England don't need Scotland.

If Scotland became independent, the extremely large amount of unionists in the country would cause havoc. Rioting, looting, and and an even bigger split of the people of Scotland (nationalists vs unionists), who already have extremely violent tendencies towards each other as it is.

The Scottish government don't want that blood on their hands.

So, when Bill Gates walks into a bar, on average, the 10 regular people in it are all billionaires, and if I asked the, could easily throw a million my way.

If you are going to look at incomes, median is a better measure, and one should, as noted above, consider how that wealth and income are concentrated.

Let me know when this guy submits his research to an economics journal.

LOL, yeah that was pretty stupid using averages to discuss wealth inequality. :lol

LOL I remember back in the 80s and 90s when people would always talk about Mexico being such a shit country because the wealth was so concentrated at the top. Now the US inequality is a lot closer to Mexico than of its good neighbor Canada.

I suppose you would have a great point if there was a Bill Gates in each state (lol, especially with a pop. of 10) or if Britain had no billionaires.

The top 10 billionaires in GB are each richer than the wealthiest person in these states:


Alabama
Delaware
Idaho
Iowa
Kentucky
Louisiana
Maine
Mississippi
New Mexico
Pennsylvania
Rhode Island
Utah
West Virginia

It wasn't about wealth inequality.

There are lots of reasons that Mexico is a shit country.

So, he hasn't submitted his research to any kind of peer review?

It was about income inequality, and the point about averages still stands.

The guys thinking was amateurish and sloppy, and just happened to support your ideological/psychological need to have socialist countries be worse off than the US, which is, in theory, less socialistic.

So you lapped it up. Ends up saying more about you than anything else, IMO.

this is not a measure of median incomes and living standards Indeed.

[DarrinS]

Indeed.

I see what you did there.


So this is not a measure of median incomes and living standards although it is a useful guide to them.

[ChumpDumper]

I see what you did there.lol useful guide

Why cant any of them just measure median incomes and living standards?

What's more embarrassing: England losing Scotland, or the Sharts losing that 3-0 lead? :downspin:

The first thing that will happen after the Scottish successfully secede from the United Kingdom is that Rangers and Celtic fans are going to kill each other.

They've basically done that already, but Rangers fans would have the backing of England, due to the Celtic fans siding with the IRA :lol
