This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Who is actually surprised by this? I would be more surprised if young Americans felt it was a great place to live.

The true surprise is that we were ever that high up. Did they only survey the richest people? Were previous generations too stupid to understand their situation? Is the rest of the world literally hell?

Israel is also high up, currently ranking number 6. You can guess who weren't interviewed there.

Comparatively, yes. Life outside of 1st world nations is brutal.
