RE: "How about India?" - Well that depends. If you are talking porn wise, then yeah they would be better off, India has very strict anti-porn laws. However I am guessing that most Indians are more concerned about other aspects of the "British Raj".
RE: "Mel Gibson screaming, "FREEEEEEDOMMMMM"" Yes but where as India and America got their Independence, Scotland did not. Let that be a lesson to you, you want to overthrow another government, don't let an Australian lead you.
RE: "So, we would be better off if we were still under the rule of England." A lot of people still think you are. One of the most frightening aspects of the recent war was that just before it kicked off a British paper sent journalists over there to find out if they really wanted to be liberated. Over half of those who considered it an "invasion" rather than a "liberation" condemned it with words to the effect of "The imperialistic British are just trying to build a new empire, they will invade, take over our country and
their lackeys the Americans will help them invade like they always do"
Of course your biggest problem over there is that even if you did come crawling back and asked to be annexed again, we don't want you.
