I can't think of another question that would elicit more misleading answers than this one.... Oh, wait — how about asking married couples "How many times a week do you have sex?"

Yeah, it doesn't seem right.

War, global warming, natural disasters, pollution, poisoning, toxic chemicals, environmental decimation, animal extinction, Big Pharma, drugs, Big Oil, gas prices, Monsanto, evil corporate empire, the government in cahoots (heh, what a funny word) with big businesses, politics, forced drugging, government corruption, torture, secret prisons, "new world order" conspiracies, "end of the world" theories, Draconian policies, nanny government, elites, socioeconomic gaps, poverty, sickness, starvation, human trafficking, modern human slavery, food crisis, health care crisis, water shortage, illiteracy, human rights abuse, mindless conformity, bad economy, fearmongering, brainwashing, bias, prejudice, bigotry, intolerance, apathy, segregation...

How can anyone be happy?

And I do think there are pills that drug you into being happy. I've once talked to my doctor once about being stressed out and having anger problems. She said there were "happy pills" you can take. Thank you, no.

Wow! An area where female castration is forced upon young girls, just so happens to be an area where they are most unhappy? Wow. Who'd a thunk??

People (in general) are fatter, more sedentary, poorer, eating mostly processed foods, drinking polluted water and taking all sorts of pharmaceuticals - and they're happier? Maybe we're all on the wrong track here.
