"If Americans knew these facts, they might want what Europe has, a more egalitarian society, with better healthcare and better quality of life. I don’t expect American media to be sharing this data with their viewers anytime soon, so share this blog with an American friend in that bottom 90% that thinks they are so better off than the rest of world. If they demanded a move away from GDP growth towards quality of life, they might just be richer, and healthier, happier."
