 The article discusses why Finland consistently ranks as the happiest country in the world according to the World Happiness Survey. It attributes Finland's happiness to various factors, including lower income inequality, high social support, freedom to make decisions, and low levels of corruption. Finland's highly decentralized publicly funded healthcare system, reliable and affordable public transport, and efficient housing policies are also mentioned as contributing factors.
While countries like Norway and Hungary have similar levels of income inequality, Finland stands out as being happier.  The article suggests that Finland's fair schools and realistic expectations might have an impact. Despite having less money overall, Finland excels in over 100 global indicators of economic and social well-being. The weak performance of Hungary is linked to its polarised politics and eroding democracy. The essay emphasises the significance of freedom and the absence of fear for people's happiness, using Turkey and India as examples of countries with lower levels of happiness in comparison to their economic inequalities. South Africa and China, on the other hand, are generally happier than their levels of inequality would imply. In general, the article concludes that countries with lower income inequality and more equitable social services tend to have happier populations. Electing governments that prioritize income equality, efficient social services, and freedom are important for people's happiness.
