based on keen observation, most ppl are not. today's population has become so materialistic, they think money is the be-all and end-all of everything. yes i admit money is important but its not everything. also, most ppl today no longer know how to be happy without spending too much. another reason why ppl are not happy is because they have allowed the "rat-race" system to eat them up alive. ppl no longer know how to reason out and assert themselves so that they can get the really substantial needs that they have or think they have. nowadays, ppl are so dependent on other people, on technology, on money to achieve "happiness." ppl have forgotten that the best things in life are the ones that are just around the corner, the things that are free. we just dont see it.

I believe we live in the comedy era. Entertainment is focused on laughing at ourselves. We all realise that the world is screwed up so what do we all do about it.... Laugh!

No matter who you are, anyone can say an argument on either side and still mean it.
