1. This doesn't seem to measure happiness

It seems to measure things that can make you happy. Big difference.
2. Happiest People
Leonard ,   Green River, U.S.A.   (09.09.13)
It seems that all the happiest people in the world have some form of national Health Insurance. I wonder if there is some connection. I know having it would take a big load off my mind..............
3. And, if it were not for the Arab Israeli conflict that is...
Jehudah Ben-Israel ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (09.09.13)
...imposed upon us by the Muslim-Arab world, local and regional alike, Israel would likely be up there among the three countries in which its citizens enjoy dwelling.
4. USA not so great, Israel much better
larry ,   LA   (09.09.13)
as a person who traveled much between USA and Israel and has lived in both places; I see that people in the USA are definitely not as happy and secure in life as us who live in Israel. Life is not just making money and entertainment, it is feeling comfortable with surroundings, having many friends, being secure in life and in community.
5. #2 you are correct
Frank ,   USA   (09.09.13)
When I moved to Australia from the USA the universal Australian health care system gave me a peace of mind and it felt like a load was taken off my shoulders. On the other hand, it is flawed and not as good as an American. The Israelis have an advantage. Their health care professionals for the most part are some of the best in the world.
6. Left Media here Manic Depressists
ManicDepressiveMedia ,   Jerusalem Israel   (09.09.13)
Media seems shocked no wonder most I have met are clinically manic depressed and try to spread their sickness to the public which is healthy and rejects it and them
7. Happy?
Peter Hansen ,   Aarhus Denmark   (09.10.13)
We in Denmark are happy but not because of the muslin in our country . Without muslim we will be a super happy nation
8. Let's see how happy Sweden is when Muslims set it on fire
Yaniv ,   Israel   (09.10.13)
9. Happy with NHS!!
