Default I need to move to Denmark.

I wonder how US will rate in this survey, probably not so high.

CLICK

I also heard on the radio there was a similar survey done on the children of the industrialized countries. The children of US and Britain were least "happiest."

EU is not a country, but a union of countries in Europe. Some poor countries, such as Romania, are also in the EU, and you probably wouldn't wanna live there because they are very different than Germany, France, Italy, etc.

and asking people whether they are "happy" isnt the way to do this. if u asked me today, i would say im happy. and if you asked me on a day where something bad happened, i could answer differently. maybe a better way to judge what countries are "happiest" would be to see how many people are in therapy/on medication for being depressed. by those terms, we'd still lose

I don't think I'd be happy living in Denmark.

The taxes applied on cars is exhorbitant. I just wouldn't be able to afford anything I truly want.

Yes, but if you were Danish, you may not be so inclined to attach your happiness to what car you owned. . .

In Stockholm and Copenhagen, I saw plenty of nice cars. Oslo; not quite so many.

As far as the suicide rates go. . . well, go 3 months without seeing the sun, and tell me how that pans out for you. . .
