Since we're expressing opinions, mine is that this is a no-brainer. How can knowing that one has access to health care NOT lead to a happier lifestyle? Think of how much less stress and worry there would be in the face of universal health care, not just for oneself but in such contexts as parents for their children, adults for their elderly parents, and so forth. I'm not at all surprised that all the top happiest countries have UHC.... Are there other factors? I'm sure there are, but this is a pretty big and important one.
