Is Florida Right?

>Before you mistake this blog as an appeal for New Brunswickers to stay home this winter (i.e. is it 'right' to migrate to Florida), don't. It's not. It's in reference to professor Richard Florida whose thinking is sweeping the economic development world. He did research on successful economies and found that those that are successful tend to have a more diverse labour pool (higher levels of immigrants), a higher percentage of creative people (persons working in artistic occupations) and, a higher gay population.<

Do you agree, that gays are a stable and productive element in the economic and social and..yes...aesthetic life...of a community?

Higher incomes? :toast:

Better educated? B-)

Nicer lawn ornaments (gay men). :hug:

Good insulation, wiring, and wonderfully built decks. ( gay women). :grouphug:
