"Me Not Happy", Indeed

I often worry about how spoiled Americans seem to be. My parents' generation grew up in the Great Depression (unimaginable to the boomers, let alone Gen X) and then fought and won WWII (Can you imagine 300 combat deaths a day, for almost four years? I didn't think so.) This may seem like nostalgic harping, but remember--those old folks were 20 years old when all that was happening. I doubt we could handle it today.

Dr. Sanity has a great post up on wealth, privilege and happiness. Check it out--especially the perfectly hilarious cartoon.
