Yet another in what is virtually an endless list of bunk, skewed surveys.

Ho-hum.

So the world’s happiest country is where Adolf Hitler is supposed to have gone after the war ... I guess he kept to himself. :)

I know some people from these happy countries, they are often smiling but I thought perhaps they were just a bit touched in the head or something.

I agree, but with regard to Lithuanians:

Nine of the most content countries had estimated GDPs of less than $15,000 per capita last year. In Lithuania — the third most miserable country — GDP per capita was $22,566.

and I admit that I am being overly broad--Lithuanians just want to be able to work hard and buy nice things for themselves. Work hard, party hard. Unless you've met one, you will not understand.
