Another example.......for the last 10 or many more years GNP has increased - yet people are having fewer children partly because they say "the next generation will be less "well off" than our current one. Less "well off" equates to Quality of Life, not GNP. GNP is like a FALSE GOD cooked up by Wall Street and ad agencies as a SUBSTITUTE for HUMAN HAPPINESS! Just be aware of that.
Okay, here is a comparison of quality of life in the US vs Australia.

United States compared to Australia

(Hint: The US doesn't do well)
