I think it's been too long now to get concrete answers. Many people support independence because it become an identity, because they have socialized on it during their mid twenties or so. As an example, I have had some discussions with independence supporters where they have denied me, categorically and multiple times, that at the beginning of the mediatization of the conflict, one of the most important arguments and that was debated with intensity in the television and internet gatherings was that Catalonia contributed much more money than it received, and that such a thing was unfair. So many people simply want to become independent, regardless of the arguments against and in favour, and of any cost-benefit analysis.
