No, not Disney World. Bhutan.A few nights ago, I caught Michael J. Fox on David Letterman plugging his new book, Always Looking Up: The Adventures of an Incurable Optimist.
Fox found an entire country of optimists in Bhutan where he says leaders are not just judged on the GDP (Gross National Product) but also the GNH (Gross National Happiness.) Fox went on to say leaders make decisions to ensure the happiness of the country.
On the whole, Fox says the Bhutanese seem pretty happy.
I wonder if there is a GNH index. How do we know people are happy?
