So why are we so low? At number 21?

1 - Switzerland

2 - Iceland

3 - Denmark

4 - Norway

5 - Canada

6 - Finland

7 - Netherlands

8 - Sweden

9 - New Zealand

10 - Australia

15 - USA

21 - UK

Countries like Denmark, Sweden, Switzerland, Netherlands have high levels of immigration, higher social provision, higher taxes. So why are we only ranking at 21?

Because we work to fucking hard...

We are encouraged to, get addicted to it, then give up most other parts of our lives...

For the love of money.

Probably because, on the whole, we have become a materialistic society but one day we will wake up and realise that stuff doesn't bring you happiness.
