doing an international poll, it was the countries with a social/economic safety net where people felt the happiest.
It seems, for some unknown reason, :sarcasm: when one does not have to go thru life worried about whether one will die in poverty, alone and unaided without medical care on a street corner, one's life seems so much happier.
In all the polls, US is usually at or very near the bottom of the list.
