I am pretty happy. I'll be happier in one year, 11 months and 26 days when I
retire from the army and begin my new life.

I'm damn happy. My friends are pretty happy, by an large as well. That is
something I look for in friends, so that isn't surprising. Not all of them
are happy with their jobs, but they are happy they have one.
You definitely make your own happiness. Just saying that "having a job"
doesn't automat
It helps tremendously :)
Plus the first winning season for the Royals in 10 years. Now we just need
to avoid the 3rd Cardinals championship in the last 7 years, and we'll call
it a successful year!

How much of that's due to KC Chiefs being 7-0 ;)

Actually, you did:
"I do know that the ones I have personally observed
are lazy, or at least vastly under-motivated."
You really shouldn't engage with people that question your statements
because you would have to defend your words. That too often proves
difficult.

*shrug* OK
In KC, we're generally pretty happy. All my friends are employed, and they
are all happy. Guess you make your own happiness.

No, and I didn't claim they did. The only person in this conversation
using the word lazy is you. And I'm done. I broke my own rule about not
engaging in conversation with you. It won't happen again.

Somehow I doubt the labor depart told you all of the 5% (it's 4.5%
actually) that will never work do so because they are lazy. Then again,
knowing the labor Department the way I do it's possible.

Actually those numbers were given to me by the labor department when I ran
a business in Atlanta, Georgia at the height of the Internet boom. So
blaming it on California is just your usual twisty spin.

California is known to be different. Of the 5%, I would guess half can't
work because of disabilities or some cause while the other half might be
lazy or just too used to the being on the gov teat. The other 26% didn't
used to be lazy four years ago.

The government considered 5% unemployment to be full employment because at
least 5% just aren't going to work..period. As for the rest, I don't know
if 47 million are lazy. I do know that the ones I have personally observed
are lazy, or at least vastly under-motivated. If they spent as much tim
So you think 47 million people are just lazy? They weren't lazy four years
ago. Just saying

I'd like to see a study of the happiness levels of those who watch Cable
news versus those who don't, with a breakout by channel. I suspect those
who listen to the fear-mongers are most unhappy.
As for unemployment, every single unemployed person I know personally sits
around and whines all day
Except that having a job does not mean that you are happy. Some people
really love their job and it is very much a part of who they are. I'd
hazard a guess that most people are not in that situation and that they are
in a job because they need the money. "Better than the alternative, I
guess" is r

I wonder if that counts the part time workers wishing they had full time
work.
I just had lunch with six co-workers from my last job
Since the vast majority of Americans are employed...that's a lot of happy
people.

The people in the US with jobs are happy, the rest are miserable. But if
you want to use Larry's logic, flip that around.

If they just asked that, then yes, but they used the OECD measures, so you
are bound to get somewhat different answers.

Americans are a strange bunch. We've got it good...real
good...comparatively speaking...and deep down, most of us know that. So we
have sort of weird attitudes likewe need to downplay how well we've got
it, or we need to constantly be thinking that we really don't have it as
good as we think,
