Do you read these reports you cite? They do not speak to the effect which you argue; like many articles on the subject, it's socialist propaganda.

Because it arbitrarily selects certain bits of information as bases for a misleading synthesis, i.e. correlating government involvement with "happiness." Perhaps next time, you'll read the actual reports, and not just parrot the propaganda of the article across which you've come. That way, you'll understand the context under which the information was derived.
