Staying in the UK is by far a much higher risk than independence because the UK has a severe probability of extreme financial collapse having a debt ratio of around 400% of its annual GDP.

Scotland leaving will jolt the rest of the UK into dealing with this problem instead of always leaving it to the next elected government to sort out the financial mess.
