I honestly hope the people vote to stay in the U.K.. I think it would be a disaster for that country to separate. There's no going back if they do.
There are big arguments on if they will get to keep the Pound. Westminster says no, Scotland says yes. There will be no British military to depend on, and there are a big list of risks, not to mention exposing the new country to invasion or terror. They will have to apply to NATO and the European union, and neither will cut them any slack. There is no written constitution to look for for guidelines on all of this, and a new independent nation will have to create its own.
Another part of the controversy is that 16-year-olds will vote too. Some believe that it will be the teenagers who will decide the country's fate.
At this point, NO ONE knows how it might go. People change their minds daily in polling.

I understand the argument for independence from the U.K., but it sounds like a bad idea at this point in time.
What do you all think?
