This article, The economics of Happiness, was quite clever and interesting to read. It gave statistics on the GDP of Arab countries, with an interesting correlation to happiness. The article also discussed Maslow’s pyramid of needs, and made comparisons to the income levels of average citizens. I found the article informative, interesting and full of interesting comparisons relating to macro economics. I will let my view point slide in where applicable regarding the inclination that money is equal to that of true happiness.
