In response to Re: the world's table (FTinPRC)

According to the latest World Happiness Report, released Monday by the Sustainable Development Solutions Network for the United Nations, the happiest countries are:
1- Norway
2- Denmark
3- Iceland
4- Switzerland
5- Finland
6- Netherlands
7- Canada
8- New Zealand
9- Australia and Sweden

14- The United States came in 14th place, dropping one place from last year.
16- Germany
19- UK
49- Russia
51- Japan
79- China

Happiness isn't just about money, although it's part of it.
Real gross domestic product per capita is one of the key measurements, said the report.
Others include generosity, a healthy life expectancy, having someone to count on, perceived freedom to make life choices and freedom from corruption, the report's authors argued.
