The story states: "Soon after ascending to the position of the Fourth Dragon King of Bhutan, the young Jigme Singye Wangchuck declared that he was more interested in gross national happiness than in gross domestic product" - Wow, what a far cry from our American politicians! If only our leaders were more interested in our happiness maybe we Americans could stop working our fingers to the bone to pay rent and keep food on the table! Corporate fat-cats earning scandalous, jaw-dropping salaries, devious career politicians catering to big business and the huge industrial war complex all together have plundered the American dream. All the while citizens are fed media fluff about what celebrity is dating who and what designer they are wearing. Sad indeed.
