    Glasgow is over 500 years old and the third most populated city in the U.K. and has been growing all the time, why is it suddenly going to go into decline?
    Because its biggest industry is welfare. As welfare grows more people become poorer and therefore rely on the state The state in turn becomes more powerful as the people who depend upon it vote for those who are most likely to grow it.

    So anyone stupid enough to set up a business (other than drugs and alcohol related), having been led there by the pied piper of the Welfare state with promises of low taxes and cheap skilled labour, they will become established and then subsequently be bled dry.
