Should I move back to an independent Scotland

I don't post much but I read and immensely enjoy the cowshed debates.

I've lived in Texas for seven years now. I lived most of my prior 35 years in Edinburgh.

Texas: Never have I met more self-supporting, eager, energetic, economically risk-taking, well-mannered, work-ethic oriented, intelligent and uncomplaining people. I'm not saying they're all like that but more are than aren't.

Scotland: Never did I meet more State-supported, lethargic, actuary-minded, rude, complacent and 'A kent his Ma and she wis jist a cleaner" people.

Death penalty aside (that's a big aside for me too), what would attract me back to an independent Scotland?

Because an independent Scotland will need an entrepreneurial mind-set to be successful. I believe it can be.
