Why you should read The Great Reset

Urban studies scholar Richard Florida first popularized the idea of the creative class. Now he argues that saving the last shreds of the factory-driven industrial system makes no sense. A massive overhaul is underway, and knowledge workers are its new vanguard. Florida makes his points in short, punchy chapters, but steps away from stating the obvious. getAbstract recommends this book to economists, politicians, urban planners and anyone wanting a sense of the likely future.

    I think the biggest strenght of the U.S. is that, besides Canada, it is probably the country most open to people of all cultures. The biggest pitfall is probably its media/show business which, while being watched around the world, has a created a society that is more and more in conflict with science and progress.
