Charles Murray has written a new book called Coming Apart which details how over the last 50 years our society has become more stratified, with the smart, rich and well to do moving away from living anywhere near the not-so-smart, poor and disadvantaged.
I'm going to get it and read it.
But first I took this quiz which supposedly measures the thickness of the cocoon I've wrapped myself in.
Sample question: "Have you ever participated in a parade that did not involve global warming, gay rights, or a war protest?"
My score was 7-20 and I have the certificate to prove it. It comes with the advice: "You need to get out more."
Fishtown, here I come.
