USA ranks 17th among world's happiest countries

[ValerieA 350]

Rational Human--WOW! Out of 192 countries we are 17th in happiness. We are in the top 10%..What a great country we live in.

You guys never miss a chance to look silly

There were 156 countries ranked...so no, we are not in the top 10%.

I think it's because Charles! keeps ruining our internetz.

[Darnell 8,478]

We're #1....7!

No No No. Yer still a Canadien citizen, and must claim your 6th ranking.

Please stay away from USA-centric topics until , if/when, you become a USCitizen.

Less confusing for those around you, all the way round.

[Darnell 8,478]

Wait, someone here decided that liberals made this report? LMAO

It's all Penny's fault.

Why? From Day 1 , from her immigrating into the USA, all she's done is complain, complain, complain, and made at least 118 USCitizens around her, very distraught and unhappy.

Yes, we can blame a Canadien for the ranking on the USA, this one time. It's all Penny's fault.

These type surveys are always cooked with the questions they ask and the questions they don't ask.

If they just took a survey asking people -"From 1 to 10 how would you rate your happiness?"

If that were the gist of the survey we would have different results.

When you have 25 questions on their experience with "healthcare" and not one on if they wished they owned a firearm...... what does that tell ya?

This might come as a surprise to you, Danno, but to most people in the world and in this country, their health care is much more important than whether or not they own a firearm. There is a small slice of the population that values their guns over absolutely everything. Those are the exception. A tiny minority. We call them gun nuts. And no, they do not represent this nation.

But I only asked for one question on the topic, instead we get.

_Do you have adequate recycling?

_Do you have green ways to walk?

_DO you have Low energy bulbs?

_Do you feel your Gov't loves you?

_Do you have free wireless?

I'm rather surprised the Multi-culturals don't complain their utopias don't score higher.....must be a real disappointment after decades of immigration and promises.

Where did you come up with that nonsense? Oh, of course. In your head.

<<<<The report, from the U.N. Sustainable Development Solutions Network, is based on how people around the world rate their overall satisfaction with life, not just on how they feel at any moment. It shows that while economic conditions matter, factors such as life expectancy, freedom and social support do, too. >>>>

Son when you have been unmasking these people as long as I have you too will be able to sniff em out.

Okay, so you have come up with that nonsense in the only place capable of producing it. Thanks for confirming.
