I think I specifically addressed the concerns/comments in my posts 
a) I never said anything about being more "ethical" (unless having a greater sense of community = ) more ethical
, just that it was different to England. I also said that in the intervening years, it's no longer still so strongly the case.
These comments were my contribution to why I think Scotland is more consistently left wing than England - which was a question that was asked on here and which is a matter of public record given the election results over the years.
b) I also explicitly stated that if we were independent, we wouldn't be able to blame others (like Westminster) for things that go wrong. We would have to own them - whereas at the moment it's too easy to blame Westminster for the lack of pocket money funding via the block grant. As a taxi driver once said to ds, if we make mistakes, they'll be our fuck-ups.
And if we don't like the government, we can change it.
(As an aside I do have concerns about a uni-cameras parliament that was designed assuming coalition governments, with committees providing the checks & balances - but when there's a single party with an overall majority, there's no proper oversight
).
We can't blame immigrants as we need more - John Swinney and Stephen Flynn have been explicit about this (and it was also discussed in the Indyref document "Scotland's Future") . We have an aging population and have areas that are actually depopulating
Immigrants on average are net contributors to the economy and as such, would help drive growth
(Something that should have been explained better before and since the EU Referendum and not allowed the ERG/Farage/Bravermanns of this world drive the toxic conversation
)
I live in an area with a very high proportion of immigrants
Ds' primary school was over 60% EAL (English as an Additional Language). I'm proud of the fact that when the BNP tried to exploit a horrific racially aggravated murder perpetrated by Asians in the neighbourhood (and to give Anas Sarwar's father - who had been a Labour MP in the area - his due, he arranged the lads' extradition from Pakistan), the murdered boy's own mother told them to Get Tae Fuck and they never gained a foothold 
Not saying everything is (or will/would be
) perfect though.
But I do have an NHS dentist, can get a GP appointment within a week (telephone within a day - slightly longer if you want a specific GP, dh is getting his hip replaced next week in a top class orthopaedic hospital (he's waited a year since the orthopaedic surgeon agreed that he should actively go on the list and 2 years since he was sort of on it - but that's because he was still running around refereeing youth rugby games and they were therefore reluctant to do it. We still managed to walk >20,000 steps a day in Madeira in March
), have used the pharmacist to get (free) antibiotic eye drops (so saving a visit to the GP), ds' girlfriend got seen within a hour at A&E (and saw the GP the following day).
I do get pissed off at the potholes though
