That's part of the problem. Some swaying voters are think "Och well we can give it a go and if it goes wrong we will go back" not realising this is a one way street.

A yes vote might bring prosperity and social utopia to Scotland. It's far more likely to lead to:

The EU, not EU lite that the UK has with rebates, opt outs etc. but the full on EU experience with the Euro, Schengen, no rebate, no opt outs and the kind of voice at the table that Ireland has.

A demolition of the housing market with mortgage rates shooting up and with either a CU or Euro a foreign parliament will be overseeing our budget

Huge swathes of jobs being lost in finance, ship building and other industries.
