WORLD HAPPINESS

[ZARIS]

The world happiness report for 2015 has been released.

 

As is usual the Scandinavian countries dominate.

 

Check the list and you find NO asian countries in the top 20.

 

Just one muslim country- UAE.

 

New Zealand rated one spot above Aust by 100th of a point . Probably because most of the kiwis are over here anyway and NZ is full of Aussie tourists- a huge money earner according to NZ Prime MInister this week.

 

Happiness seems to be most abundant a long way from the equator. At least according to the new World Happiness Report 2015. The 10 happiest countries are Switzerland, Iceland, Denmark, Norway, Canada, Finland, Netherlands, Sweden, New Zealand, and Australia. Except for war-torn Syria and Afghanistan, the 10 unhappiest countries are all in Saharan or sub-Saharan Africa.

If Mexicans are happier than Americans why do they all want to jump the border?

Economic opportunity and a safer environment.

[flaguy]

That's my point. If they need to come to USA for that how can they be happier

They're happy because they know the border's open.

Because they are poor and there are few jobs available.

Ii's like the Filipinos, mostly happy good natured people but their country is screwed up.

Anyhow, being in the USA does not make them not Mexican!

Plenty of jobs are available, but apparently we pay better north of the border. Which kinda ties into poor, but someday their government may actually decide to take care of their own people rather than just their own relatives.
