David Ravensbergen critiques Richard Florida's concept of the creative class
"'Staying put' is only for those who can't afford to move, or those who still hold the outmoded belief that living near friends and family is a central component of basic happiness.

It makes you incapable of talking to people unlike you; inculcates a false sense of self-worth; offers too much security; and trains leaders, not thinkers, argues Deresiewicz. Also, he discusses the importance of solitude.
