Happiness in the US is declining and is expected to continue on a
downward path, with Donald Trump's policies forecast to deepen the
country's social crisis. The US has slipped to 15th place in the World
Happiness Report 2017, produced by the United Nations. The world's
economic superpower is well behind top-ranked Norway, although it
remains above Germany in 17th place, the UK in 19th, and France in
32nd. Norway knocked Denmark off the top spot as the world's happiest
country, with Iceland and Switzerland rounding out the top four. The
report's authors stress, however, that the top four are so close that
changes are not statistically significant. The next tier of countries
are regular leaders in international happiness surveys: Finland is in
fifth place, followed by the Netherlands, Canada, New Zealand,
Australia and Sweden. The world's "unhappiest" countries are all in
the Middle East and Africa: war-stricken Yemen and Syria feature in
the bottom 10, with Tanzania, Burundi and Central African Republic
making up the final three.
