The world economy was tanked by the possessors of most of the money being reckless. That's pretty simply and apparent, no? LIBOR?
Specific countries, please with facts and figures about how well they are doing financially.

Read a newspaper.

What specifically are you looking for? You denying the fact that the available money in the (free) world has never been more stratified to the possession of an upper class of elite that run our governments and banks, set their own interest rates and own the laws? You think that is not true?

Look at the larger picture - you're down in the weeds of "which economies are specifically doing well and by how many dollars" That wasn't my point.

You said other countries have better ways of life for their citizens, I would like to know if any of those countries with all the happy people that do not have to work very hard are doing well financially. I choose not to read a newspaper to prove your point, I would like you to prove your point.
If we need to sacrifice what remains of this once great country for everyone to be happy I would like to see the future represented in one of the many countries you are suggesting we emulate.
Please?

I already provided two links for you to review, regarding what I was talking about, and the other countries I am referencing.

YOU changed the subject completely to a new topic, "which of these countries are currently operating on a stable economy", which is not anything I was discussing.

SO as long as the quality of life for citizens is good, the effect on the economy is irrelevant. Got it, thank you.

No. That's not what I said at all, and you know it.

I was discussing overall quality of life and opportunity in various countries, and I provided two links for you to read regarding what I was discussing. And that certainly includes how economies approportion their income to their citizens.

You clearly didn't read the links, and do not understand what I am talking about.

YOU, instead, have changed the subject to current specific economic conditions in various countries, and are angry I'm not spoon-feeding you subject material on something I didn't bring up?

No. Get your head into the right conversation.

10th in the avg. life satisfaction, that is pretty solid I'd say. Considering that Costa Rica and Ireland are ranked ahead of us.

Average happiness yesterday we are 6th!! Once again somehow below Ireland...
I am beginning to doubt the validity of this study, the Irish are a notoriously unhappy people.
