I lived for several years in Virginia because I was stationed in Norfolk. What a suck-ass, piece-of-sh!t state. I have nothing good to say about it because there isn't anything good to say about it. The worst, stupidest driving laws in the country--completely backwards from civilized nations. No place to get laid by anyone worth laying. The sailors didn't call it No-fvck, Vagina for nothing.

I think you're confusing their innocence of first world issues as a reason for them being happy and to be fair measuring happiness is not an easy thing to do.

The nearest I've seen concerning this and the one I'd most agree with, would be the reports over the years that say the happiest nations are normally the Scandinavian countries and the common factors here are a high standard of living, good disposable income, good working environment, excellent social security system, a clean environment, low crime and a liberal setting. In fact the only really negative factor that comes out of that area tends to revolve around the climate.

Considering Seattle is the home of some of the more successful businesses as well as being a great place to start a small business, this doesn't make a lot of sense.

I'm not saying income, security, healthcare etc. don't improve life, nor am I saying poverty is a prime requisite for happiness, only that it is propogated and nourished from within.

Yeah and neglecting to mention that it's a lot easier to "nourish from within" when you don't have to worry about income, security, and healthcare etc.


Super simple stuff here.
