Where would you want to live?

Newsweek posted an article about the top places in the world to live according to many different standards such as size, wealth, quality of life, healthcare etc.  Was I surprised that the US didn't make the list in any category?  Not really.  As Americans we live in a society of too much.  We work too much, we eat too much, we want too much, we stress too much etc.  I'm thinking Finland, Norway, Germany and Australia are looking pretty good...

Very interesting. Thanks for posting. I'm not surprised US isn't there either. Unfortunately, it's sad but true facts. I student taught in Australia, and LOVED it, really want to go back some time. They are so relaxed there. Their favorite saying is "no worries mate". U.S. spends the most on health, and is still one of the sickest nations, go figure.
