The happiness index

Those melancholy Danes have now cheered up, to the point that Denmark is now the happiest place on earth. The USA ranks up there at number 16, despite reports of record dissatisfaction. According to the study, happiness rates are actually way up since the first such survey in 1981. It’s interesting to track how the different countries measured up. U.S. Territory Puerto Rico is second, and strife-torn Columbia is third.
