You really have brought your A-game to the stupidity table, haven't you?
Can the Scottish government cut VAT? No.
Can the Scottish government change the amount of duty collect on the fuel? No.
The only thing they can do is raise tax on income and land-tax. And on that I should remind you on that one power the SNP have excelled. There's little appetite to purchase silly expensive houses given the stamp duty. In 2015 16,000 new houses were built in Scotland compared to 140,000 in England. That's 0.32% in Scotland versus 0.22% in England.
Clearly where the Scottish government has authority it is using it better.

Scotland is leaving the EU with the UK and it will be hellish to get back in, our finances are fooked, we have to join the euro and Spain won't let it happen.
The only thing this national socialist movement is doing is damaging the economy ( see what happened in 2014 )...
...and sustaining the nationalists crywanking to run rig albums
