Have a look at http://boingboing.net/2012/02/25/world-is-a-happier-place-than.html for information on global happiness. It seems that we're not doing too badly down under, especially if we factor in the extraordinary result from Indonesia lying to the north of us. If happiness is a portent of stability and non-aggression, this is a good part of the world to live in. And, by the way, have a look at the scores for some of the BRIC nations, omitting Russia. It seems that rapid growth is associated with happiness. Europe is lagging in the scheme of things, as situation that's going to get worse as the region plumbs recession.
