| Will my taxes go up? |

| Scotland is a wealthy country, however badly it is presently governed. An independent Scotland will be more than able to maintain – and improve on – the current level of services within the current overall level of taxation. We start out from a healthy economic base. It will be up to an independent Scottish Government as to whether it wants to cut or raise taxes, and it will be accountable democratically to the Scottish people for those decisions. The argument of the anti-Independence parties - that Independence will automatically mean more taxes for less services - is actually an argument that Scots are too stupid to run their own economy. The SNP rejects that argument. With Independence, Scotland finally gets to choose for itself how much it pays in tax. |
