Happiest Places on Earth

I caught this at No Left Turns. A left-wing outfit with the name New Economics Foundation syas that Vanutu is the happiest place on earth with countries such as Cuba, Columbia, and Vietnam close behind.

Now everyone is entitled to decide what makes a person happy. Note however, that the people who are part of this outfit are not likely to be moving to any of these places any time soon.

Most importantly, all those who are pretty sure that they would not be happy living in Cuba or Vietnam should likely disregard the pronouncements of these left-wing economists on other issues, as well. There is a good likelihood that their positions on other issues are intended to make the USA more like Cuba and Vietnam.
