Even though difficult, it is worth doing in order to arrive at more comprehensive understanding of economics, which is supposedly about satisfaction ("utility") in a Utilitarian paradigm.Sixth ToneThis is China's happiest cityBibek Bhandari See also US News & World ReportBest States Rankings — Measuring outcomes for citizens using more than 75 metrics Data Powered by McKinsey&Company
