The Rich, the Poor and Bulgaria! Money Really Can Buy You Happiness

— Published: December 16th, 2010 | Wednesday 16th August, 2023 | Christmas Specials | Comparing Countries

THE notion that money can't buy happiness is popular, especially among Europeans who believe that growth-oriented free-market economies have got it wrong. They drew comfort from the work of Richard Easterlin, Professor of Economics at the University of Southern California, who trawled through the data in the 1970s and observed only a loose correlation between money and happiness. Although income and well-being were closely correlated within countries, there seemed to be little relationship between the two when measured over time or between countries. This became known as the “Easterlin paradox”. Mr Easterlin suggested that well-being depended not on absolute, but on relative, income: people feel miserable not because they are poor, but because they are at the bottom of the particular pile in which they find themselves.

But more recent work—especially by Betsey Stevenson and Justin Wolfers of the University of Pennsylvania—suggests that while the evidence for a correlation between income and happiness over time remains weak, that for a correlation between countries is strong. According to Mr Wolfers, the correlation was unclear in the past because of a paucity of data. There is, he says, “a tendency to confuse absence of evidence for a proposition as evidence of its absence”.

There are now data on the effect of income on well-being almost everywhere in the world. In some countries (South Africa and Russia, for instance) the correlation is closer than in others (like Britain and Japan) but it is visible everywhere.

The variation in life satisfaction between countries is huge (see chart). Countries at the top of the league (all of them developed) score up to eight out of ten; countries at the bottom (mostly African, but with Haiti and Iraq putting in a sad, but not surprising, appearance) score as low as three.

Although richer countries are clearly happier, the correlation is not perfect, which suggests that other, presumably cultural, factors are at work. Western Europeans and North Americans bunch pretty closely together, though there are some anomalies, such as the surprisingly gloomy Portuguese. Asians tend to be somewhat less happy than their income would suggest, and Scandinavians a little more so. Hong Kong and Denmark, for instance, have similar income per person, at purchasing-power parity; but Hong Kong's average life satisfaction is 5.5 on a 10-point scale, and Denmark's is 8. Latin Americans are cheerful, the ex-Soviet Union spectacularly miserable, and the saddest place in the world, relative to its income per person, is Bulgaria.

United States Threatens Uganda Over Pending Anti-Gay Law

Uganda 🇺🇬 just passed a bill that would make identifying as lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender (aka LGBT)—or even merely promoting the lifestyle—with life in prison.

In a packed chamber, lawmakers overwhelmingly voted in favor of the new anti-homosexuality bill, with only two of the nearly 400 representatives voting against it.

"Congratulations," said Speaker Anita Among. "Whatever we are doing, we are doing it for the people of Uganda."

Same-sex acts have been criminal in Uganda under British colonial-era laws, but this new legislation goes much further. It punishes anyone identifying as gay or queer, and potentially people or rights groups seen as promoting LGBTQ+ identity, and same-sex relations could be punishable with up to life imprisonment.

I am not shocked that this bill passed in Uganda 🇺🇬 as the country/region has historically been hostile against LGBT folks. However, I am surprised how quickly the United States 🇺🇸 responded to the pending anti-gay law.

The White House on Wednesday warned Uganda of possible economic "repercussions" if a law imposing severe new restrictions on LGBTQ rights takes effect.

"We would have to take a look at whether or not there might be repercussions that we would have to take, perhaps in an economic way, should this law actually get passed and enacted," National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said. (Barrons)

Instead of threatening sanctions which would only worsen the humanitarian crisis in Uganda 🇺🇬 (as the country is experiencing a massive food shortage), the United States 🇺🇸 should offer to relocate those who identify as LGBT towards African countries that do not punish them for merely existing.

The current list of legally friendly African countries to LGBT includes:

Angola 🇦🇴

Botswana 🇧🇼

Mozambique 🇲🇿

Lesotho 🇱🇸

Seychelles 🇸🇨

Mauritius 🇲🇺

South Africa 🇿🇦

Gabon 🇬🇦

Although not perfect, relocating LGBT towards friendlier communities would be a better option than leaving LGBT folks in a country that is hostile towards them. It would also avoid punishing tens of millions of individuals via western sanctions, the latter which will motivate those countries to court American adversaries (like Russia 🇷🇺 & China 🇨🇳).
