Time: The Pursuit of Happiness (Part III)

So we've been talking about Time's feature on happiness, lately.

Today?

Part III: Who's Happy Around the World?

This infographic reviews studies and surveys from around the world, with what might be surprises about who is, or is not happy.  What do we see? Wealth, security. and even safety don't mean as much as you might think, and neither does career.

Then again, I wonder how the studies and surveys were done.  If you live in a society with a dangerously corrupt government and/or inhumanely strict sedition laws, of course you're going to say you're incredibly happy with your life despite poverty and unrest!

Well, check the infographic out and let me know what you think.
