Might be a good thing for Scotland in the long run. In the short run I'm guessing it would be utterly disastrous, which might hopefully force the Scots back to reality, and away from the welfare state Scotland seems to have become. If they wean themselves off their addiction with socialism, maybe Scotland will have a renaissance comparable to their golden age of Smith, Maxwell, and co.
