[DM] "Why it's not a good idea to scare away the creative class"

[rfmcdonald]

In a new post over at Demography Matters, I speculate that the recent surge of Polish emigrants to points in western Europe has been precipitated perhaps as much by the discontent of Poland's young generation with the populist conservatism of the Kaczynski government as by the gap between Polish and western Europe living standards. If your country (or region, or city) is competing for valuable workers, it's a very good idea indeed not to scare them away.
