Hawaii and California ranks among the happiest states, Texas and Florida among the unhappiest.

Very interesting. And Scandinavia the happiest countries with lots of social services. Free colleges and healthcare. People loving people. Not blocking helpful programs.

I agree with you! My parents are Scandinavian and I travel over there regularly to visit with relatives which is where dual citizenship comes in handy.

The USA in stark contrast, is not a free Nation nor has it ever has been. It has always been a Nation ready to self-implode from right-wing social exclusions.

This means that even if you're an American who was born in the USA who's the right color ..and you put the right sign on your front lawn and you voted for the right idiot in Washington, it will still cost you the price of your house if you ever end up in an American hospital. But at least you'll still have your 2nd Amendment Right fully intact to protect yourself from your fellow Americans.

@swirlie I don't think racism is a thing for the most part in educated states like New York, California, Washington, Minnesota, New Hampshire, etc.

@Carazaa
I don't know in which States Racism is advocated, but I do know that kids don't become Racists through intuitive understanding. They are taught Racism at home by their parents and by their peer groups. There are billionaires in New York who are blatantly Racist and that Racism is passed on within the household where their billionaire kids are taught by their moms and dads that it's normal to perceive themselves as superior to Blacks and Brown people. Money and higher education within a household does not mean that the home's occupants do not advocate White Supremacy.

@swirlie Yes, very sad!

Hmm... according to the source linked below, CA ranks 13tn, with FL only marginally behind at 14th. And that was before the CA wildfires.

And Utah, Idaho and South Carolina all do better than CA and FL.

TX, ranking 38th, is not doing great, but still is slightly better than Oregon, which ranks 39th.

@Gibbon what state has had no fires ever?
Gibbon · 70-79, M
@Carazaa the map is currently active. But if you've ever checked it out during the year you'll find most west of the Mississippi. The east coast ones including my state are handled quickly. The west coast is notorious for fires that burn for weeks. Most of that is caused by failed forest management. Stopping logging in Oregon allowed all the fire breaks to fill in.

@Carazaa

"Possibly, but there are fires everywhere, in every state in every country. California has fires yearly."

Every state has fires, but not every state has them to the extent of California's fires, which currently have been especially severe, even for California.

And you have STILL not posted a source for your claim that Florida is one of the unhappiest states.

We get less and less help from the NHS. They don't care anymore about patients with the excuse lack of funding especially GP.

Now rank those states against some of the happy countries...😷

@Thrust On the contrary. As previously stated I find all the Americans I have dealt with personally and in business to be polite, open and very generous with their time. And genuinely curious about my country. But you are correct on one level. I cant stand hatred. And thats you and your MAGAt friends. Hatred is wasteful, pointless and prevents progress of any kind; even the kind you want. Simply because it specializes in tearing things down. Not building anything. So I dont hate. I leave that to you. Because there are so many of you, you elected a hater in chief, who will rob you blind and blame someone else, asking you to hate them. and you probably will. You arent all that bright..But thats to be pitied. Not hated..😷

@Thrust Threatening murder now? Please try to be loving not hateful!

Could it be because they have a small homogenous population?

Diversity is NOT a strength
Carazaa · F
@Thrust Diversity is not a problem in states like Minnesota, California and Hawaii. Only in Texas, and Florida.
Thrust · 56-60, M
@Carazaa anything you say. The Summer of Love sure illustrated Minnesota's love for all

You have to be a child. Barely out of the crib

Anyone I know who lives in Texas is right out of their skull with fear about everything imaginable! And Texans are the ones with all the guns and all the cops who have no backbone to protect children from a lone gunman! Like, what the hell was that about?

If I were the President of the USA, I would actually sell the State of Texas to the highest bidder with the condition being that the new owner must take all the Texas residents and spineless Texas Rangers with the deal and that a border wall would have to be erected around Texas to keep those fear-filled poor souls locked inside indefinitely.

@swirlie There is a better way. Let the hispanics in. They want a place to raise there families without violence. Thats why they came. And they will work hard. Give them a chance and the whole thing will be settled inside a year, with improvements to the power grid as a bonus..😷

Good point!
Carazaa · F
@whowasthatmaskedman I believe everyone should have a skill and a job here with no criminal record before they come.
Biden wanted to crack down on the border, but republicans stopped that effort because they wanted to wait to get the credit. The Republicans stopped and held up any good efforts in the government. Horrible!
