Danes Are The Most Satisfied Europeans


Over two thirds of Europeans are satisfied with their lives in spite of the euro crisis and fears surrounding the single currency. This is the conclusion of a new study by the non-profit BAT-Foundation for Future Studies for which more than 15,000 members of the public in 13 different countries were interviewed.

The most positive outlook on life came from the people of Denmark, with almost all of those interviewed (96%) saying they were happy. Second on the list is Greece, followed by Italy, France and the Netherlands.

15,000 people out of a population of how many hundreds of millions? And that's supposed to be representative.

I suspect the only purpose of these surveys is to provoke debate in the news media.
