From public school to the work place, they usually try to stiffle our creativity and emotions until we become depressed, fat and on meds. :) Unfortunately Happiess is against public policy.

The crossed paths of measuring happiness and using it as a guide in policy struck me as so obvious on one hand, yet intriguing and a mystery on the other. How is it really done? Is it a "good" indicator? What are its implications across cultures? Having been a psychology and social work student, yet always with a focus and interest in public policy I am eager to learn more about this area and to ponder how it may, if at all, be applicable to society - globally or more at-home. I look forward to reading more of your ideas on the subject.
