Those results don't surprise me at all. They correspond pretty well with where healthcare is best, violence is lowest, freedoms are highest, etc. I question how important this concept of "happiness" really is, but it makes sense that those living in the best conditions are happiest.
I'm surprised to see Japan so far down on the list, however. Anybody know what's going on there? |
Nobody asked me anything. My answer would be that lower taxes are what make me happy.

Danes suck.
