Scotland wants to separate from the UK?

[QUOTE="Overlord93"] UK has its own currency, we can simply decrease or increase its value and ride it out. Ireland? nope, Britain's debt is far more than that of greece, and yet we don't have half the troubles....you know why? we kept the pound and the economic control that comes with it.superfluidity

Well that's a fine solution, just print more money! Zimbabwe tried that recently, look into how that worked out.

Explain to me how devaluation is effectively any different from inflation, especially for a nation with a trade deficit.

...where on earth did he propose printing more money?Ninja-Hippo

This fantastic statement:

He didn't say by what means the currency would lose value and I didn't automatically assume he thought devaluation was a panacea or effectively any better than printing money.
