"The Very Thing That Is Driving Our Economy Forward Is Creating These Divides"

"A bigger, denser city in general increases the rate of innovation, increases the rate of start-up, increases the rate of productivity. At the same time, the bigger, the denser, the more knowledge-intensive increases the rate of inequality, increases the rate of economic segregation, makes housing less affordable. So it's a two-sided monster."

Paul Solman on the PBS Newshour talks with Richard Florida about "winner-take-all urbanism."
