Where oil money's concerned, Scotland should've gone independent in the 70s, when oil and gas reserves where still massive, then they could've gone the Norwegian route and built up a global powerhouse of a sovereign wealth fund with which to invest in its future.
It's too late for that and so oil revenues can only be, as they are now, frittered away on short-term social investment and loan percentage pay-offs.
