    For the first time since the first World Happiness Report was issued in 2012, the United States was not ranked among the world’s Top 20 happiest countries. The drop was driven by people under 30.

    Each year, it’s no surprise that Finland tops the annual World Happiness Report.
    And this year was no different, marking the country’s seventh consecutive year
    doing so — though some Finns have bristled at the title.

    But the 2024 report, released on Wednesday, had a note of alarm that was less about who was at the top of the rankings and more about who wasn’t: Americans —
    particularly those under 30 — have become drastically less happy in recent years.

    The report, compiled annually by a consortium of groups including the United Nations and Gallup, was the latest data point in what some researchers have described as a crisis among America’s youth.

    For the first time since the first World Happiness Report was published in 2012,
    the United States fell out of the Top 20 and dropped to 23rd, pushed down by cratering attitudes of Americans under 30.

    Americans have long been an unhappy bunch. They have never ranked in the Top 10 of the World Happiness Report, which is based on how respondents in different countries rate their own happiness.

    But this was the first time that the consortium separated results by age, finding disparities in the views of younger and older Americans. Among the 143 countries surveyed, the United States ranked 10th for people 60 and older, but 62nd for people under 30. The happiest young people are in Lithuania, while the unhappiest are in Afghanistan.

    I am not surprised. When the first thing Biden does upon taking office
    is tell the minorities that they are, and have been victims. Then tells
    the white population that they are the oppressors and white
    supremacists. A president is supposed to lead and inspire, not alienate
    and divide. Are you sure you are not related to Joe Biden??

    U.S. has fallen out of the top 20. The reason is *not* Joe Biden. The reason
    is structural defects in the U.S.


    I am not surprised.  When the first thing Biden does upon taking office

    It has nothing to do with Biden, "Ken," you shit-encrusted dirty-diaper-wearing
    drooling Alzheimer's victim.

    Yes, the world is laughing at him.

    But the 2024 report, released on Wednesday, had a note of alarm that was less
    about who was at the top of the rankings and more about who wasn?t: Americans
    ? particularly those under 30 ? have become drastically less happy in recent
    years.

    The report, compiled annually by a consortium of groups including the United
    Nations and Gallup, was the latest data point in what some researchers have
    described as a crisis among America?s youth.

    Americans have long been an unhappy bunch. They have never ranked in the Top

    62nd for people under 30. The happiest young people are in Lithuania, while
    the unhappiest are in Afghanistan.
