Although an interesting read, I have a problem with one of it's central premises, that security is not a good measure of happiness, and that the UN World Happiness Report has security as a contributor to the score. It uses statements like: "The UN calculators of happiness also presume that the more security, the better. The less insecurity, the more happiness points a society is awarded."
This actually doesn't seem to be true. They use reported security as a possible explanation of happiness score, but security score does not contribute to happiness score calculation.
It sounds pedantic but kind of throws a lot of their further arguments out.
