      On my phone so I can’t do tons of research, but if you want the long short then just go here and check how many countries ranked higher than America that have lower GDP: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Happiness_Report#2023_report

      Of course you can nitpick certain stats to no end, so I’ll primarily focus on the disparity of

      -Annual vacation days

      -Public healthcare

      -Public transportation, and

      -Public education

      that the average American has compared to other developed nations

        Happiness and QOL are not directly related, and happiness is much more of a cultural thing than a cost of living thing.

        I’m all for the bullets you list but that doesn’t make these concepts shared ideas.
