52. China
Any particular reason as to why China was highlighted at #52?

This after #BlackLivesMatter - #AsianLivesMatter - #MeToo - #AttackOnCongress - #Trump

The fact that Americans are so insecure about China and its growing economy, is sometimes really obvious and rather sad.

What's even more sad is that most of things sold in the US (brands) are all mostly Made in China. Oh and that includes your 4th of July Flags.

I was going to go up to Pakistan (since this is usually requested of lists) but Pakistan was not listed on the page.

If you want to type/copy/paste/screenshot the rest of the list please do

Oh brother! Maybe you should wonder why you aren't inquiring why your country is not listed before noticing where China is. That's the real sadness here and even sadder that you don't realize it.

BTW What does this list have to do with economies??
Did you even look at the countries listed?

Doubt. China has best social services in the world. Don't believe it? Take a trip to China and see for yourself. US social services are near non existent. US don't have a single mile of high speed rail. China on the other than has tens of thousands of miles of high speed rail.

Canada has far worse infrastructure and living condition and social services than China. It's not even comparable. Go to China for a month and then go to Canada. It's not even close. The roads, the medical care, the housing. China is far more developed than Canada. Canadian roads are cracked all over, lack sufficient street lights. Chinese roads are smooth, street lights all over the place.
 
this list
Happiness is a subjective state of mind. Exactly how can anybody gauge this, quantify it and then do it for the entire globe is beyond me. Finland is a depressing country. Six months of it and you would either resort to alcohol to survive or just kill yourself by jumping from some high rise. The weather is awful and this is from a guy who lives in UK.

To employ Chinese discipline which is the highest discipline in the world to improve Canada's living condition.

Happiness or Unhappines, how do we measure them?

How can people be happy going to sleep feeling hungry or living insecure without a home?

Today it is reported that 1 in every 5 Americans living in insecurity and are lining up in food banks everyday up to 4 hour, if that considered as happiness and USA is ahead in the list at 14th and in China where 95% of the people lived in their own home and are well fed is ranked at 52 is simply unbelievable.


More unbelievable is the one who simply posted this list without the understanding.
The list is obviously done with a political bias.

Let talk about China. The CPC was founded by patriotic University students back in 1912 who sought to install a goverment for the people, by the people and to the people. They saw poverty, illiteracy and suffering everywhere in China under feudalism, warlordism, etc. There were social injustices ans suffering everywhere.
The richs were exploitong the poor. Murders were committed with impunity.

So the motto of CPC is the will of the people and to regain security and happiness.

The people are the true ruler and the power of the people and that is why Harvard study shows 96% in China supports the CPC today.


Under President Xi, he works relentlessly to lift all the people out of extreme poverty at a level above the poverty line set by UN. That is happiness. Ans happily he announced that the goal was achieved at the end of 2020. That news brought happiness to all the Chinese people.

Now let measured unhappiness.
Nations who considered themselves the competitors of China is truly unhappy at the success of China under the CPC.
That is why they become even more unhappy demonizing China and the Chinese people in disguise by attacking the CPC.

The middle class of China is much larger than the population of USA and the Chinese is happy that they are now free from COVID pandemic.
Happiness is when we are free ftom masks and we can once again socialize with our neighbours. :coffee: :cheers:

Some people want to kill themselves being in hot weather countries while others in cold. Some countries love ketchup on their fries while others only like mayo.

It is just what you are accustomed to.
