National Happiness, Wealth Disparity, and Job Satisfaction in the U.S.
The United States has experienced a notable decline in national happiness over the past few years. In the 2024 World Happiness Report, the U.S. dropped to 23rd place, its lowest ranking since the report's start in 2012. This marks a significant shift from 15th in 2023, 16th in 2022, and 19th in 2021.
Contributing to the Decline:
Economic Challenges: By December 2023, prices were approximately 19% higher than pre-pandemic levels, leading to increased financial stress, particularly for recent graduates entering the workforce.
Political and Social Turmoil: Political unrest, economic inequality, and a pervasive consumerist culture have eroded social cohesion, adversely affecting Americans' subjective well-being.
Digital Media Impact: Increased screen time and digital media consumption have been linked to decreased happiness, especially among younger generations.
