Sweden Dropping in 'Happiness" - Whadaya expect, it's the rape capital of Europe

Are Swedes no longer as happy as they used to be? According to a new report Sweden has dropped to the world's 10th happiest country, down from fifth place three years ago.

Sweden meanwhile found itself beaten by another four countries, just managing to clinch a spot in the top-10. It dropped from eighth in last year's ranking and fifth two years earlier.

However, John Helliwell, one of the editors of the report, said it was too early to say whether or not the Swedes are getting unhappier, noting that all the best-performing countries were the same as last year, although their order had shifted slightly. "

All of the top-10 countries are very close, so that small changes in the levels can cause rankings to change. Sweden's three-year score went down from 7.36 to 7.29. The New Zealand and Australian scores both went up by about the same amount. The result was that they are now above Sweden." Read it all here..........
