On "Happiness by Money" Chart Posted by The Economist

Bollocks! I’m with The Beatles: “Money can’t buy me Love”. If you take into account that our society, by adopting consumerism as the norm, has been preaching for more than 50 years that consumption of goods is what makes everyone happy, and that perennial efforts in advertising and marketing exist to foment this concept via a constant bombardment in all media, then you can easily see that earlier studies, made with samples from a generation less indoctrinated into the ethics of consumerism, are likelier to be more imaginative about the concept of happiness. http://www.economist.com/blogs/graphicdetail/2013/05/daily-chart-0?fsrc=scn/fb/wl/dc/moneybuyhappiness
