    Default New survey shows Americans are unhappier than they’ve been in years

    How could this be in Trump's America?!! In Trump's America, wrong is right, bad is good, and hate is love?!!

    Americans are as unhappy as they’ve been in years — and it seems to be a trend.

    That’s one of the main takeaways from Wednesday’s release of the annual “World Happiness Report,” put out to coincide with the United Nations’ International Day of Happiness.

    The report, which has been released every year since 2012, surveyed 156 countries using six metrics: GDP per capita, healthy life expectancy, the freedom to make life choices, social support, generosity, and perceptions of corruption.

    Fortunately not everyone’s happiness in life is based on a politician.

    Makes you wonder if this isn't related to our worst-ever drug addiction/death problem.

    I'm happy, so that's all that matters to me. You folks that want to be miserable will be miserable, so enjoy it. Happiness is not something anyone can give you or make for you. You have to make your own happiness.

    RINO is the term for that rare Republican who puts country above party.

    Right wing = lie, lie, and lie some more.

    The definition of "racist" as "anyone who is white" is itself racist.
