Can someone explain what will change when Scotland becomes independent?

Everything will be absolutely 100% wonderful. It will be Scandinavian-style social democracy with US tax levels. Any questions about currency will evaporate into a puff of smoke. Whatever the SNP decide will be gospel. If they decide that there's a currency union with the UK, there will be one, no matter whether the UK government says otherwise. If they decide on a Scottish pound, it will be better than the UK pound in every way. No need to even think about savings, pensions, mortgages, etc. You won't need to worry about markets possibly not having confidence in a new Scottish currency, because as we all know, the whole world adores Scotland.

It will be a 100% fair society, where every possible social program will be fully funded. Everything is possible with a bit of positive thinking. Just believe in yourself and it will happen.
