Scotland votes in a referendum on September 18 on whether or not to remain part of Great Britain. The polling has the race too close to call, and both sides are making a last ditch effort to win the hearts and minds of the voters. This ad in favor of independence is from a few days ago, and it’s pretty amazing. (Stick around until the end as that’s when it gets amazing):

And if that ad doesn’t convince you that Scotland should be independent, Paul Krugman is encouraging the Scots to remain part of Great Britain:
For Scotland, independence without its own currency could be total disaster. http://t.co/CUAYvSy0I3

That settles it: Vote yes for Scottish independence.
