Denmark named best place in world to live…

[YourNuz.com] Denmark has been declared the best place in the world to live while the Central African Republic is the worst, according to a new study.

Australia ranks ninth out of a total of 128 countries, the United Kingdom comes in 12th while the United States is 18th.

The results were revealed in the 2017 Social Progress Index which measures 50 indicators of what life is like for people living in different nations around the world.
I wonder how they conducted their poll?
Usually such things are done by asking X number of a reasonably matched set of people from each country the same questions and noting how they rate their experience for each on a scale from one to five, where one is awful and five is wonderful or vice versa. But they don't ask what they mean by their answers, and so the stoic Danes say everything is wonderful even as they live on antidepressants, as I recall. Americans are critical of imperfections, so we are ranked as considerably unhappier.

...but to complain about that would called racist, so they don't complain to the pollster.
