Nordic countries are also once again at the top of the happiness rankings in the annual report published by the Wellbeing Research Centre at the University of Oxford. Besides Finland, Denmark, Iceland and Sweden remain the top four and in the same order. Aino Virolainen, a digital commerce director, has lived abroad but always wants to return home to Finland.  “This is where I always want to come back to and where I want to, you know, grow my kids and grow old myself,” Virolainen said Thursday. “And I think it’s because, you know, the peace and the quietness and the trustworthiness. You know, how we speak directly and the nature, of course. It’s clean and the air is fresh and what’s there not to love?”  https://apnews.com/article/world-happiness-report-ranking-finland-afghanistan-us-b41c1712448762d98fe9e4f80233c15f

Behind closed doors at party retreats, think tank meetings and strategy sessions, Democrats have been having tense and searching conversations about ideology, policy and messaging as they urgently try to address what went wrong in last year’s election.    “I think we’re in a place internally where we’re having these family discussions and figuring out what the path forward is,” said Rep. Maxwell Frost, a Florida Democrat and, at age 28, the youngest member of Congress.        Democrats are facing stark dissatisfaction among Americans, including among the party’s base. Only about 3 in 10 U.S. adults had a favorable view of the Democratic Party, versus 54% who held an unfavorable view in a March CNN poll. And about 6 in 10 Democrats said they preferred to see the party work to stop the Republican agenda, compared with about 4 in 10 who preferred Democrats work with Republicans. That represents a stark shift from the outset of Trump’s first term in 2017, when about three-quarters of Democrats said they preferred working with Republicans over stopping the GOP agenda.        Democrats agree on some points. They uniformly detest Trump, broadly believe that they have failed to connect with the working-class voters they aim to champion and generally agree on the direction that economic and social policies should trend.        … all of the party’s efforts should be focused on winning back the 2026 majority, rather than winning the day’s news cycle.        “I think that we should stop looking at this so much as a left-right fight within our caucus — so many voters don’t even think about it that way — and think of it more as a bottom-up fight where we can unite the vast majority of the country against the small number of people that are screwing them over in their government and their workplaces,” Casar said.   https://apnews.com/article/chuck-schumer-government-shutdown-funding-democrats-c50e80ce20804250ea2d4ba013bb1de8?user_email=9a18118e64ac886183a1f61de74720d43b1343700b8a12e015ddf73957378e06&utm_medium=Afternoon_Wire&utm_source=Sailthru_AP&utm_campaign=AfternoonWire_March19_2025&utm_term=Afternoon%20Wire        

Focus on the redistribution of wealth.  The trickle-down has seemingly been enough but the debt-cost has been too much.

Kahneman was one of the world’s most influential thinkers—a psychologist at Princeton University, winner of the Nobel Prize in economics and author of the international blockbuster “Thinking, Fast and Slow,” first published in 2011. He had spent his long career studying the imperfections and inconsistencies of human decision-making. By most accounts—although not his own—Kahneman was still in reasonably good physical and mental health when he chose to die. Before the groundbreaking research that Kahneman had conducted, much of it with Barbara Tversky’s late husband, Amos Tversky, economists had long assumed that human beings are rational. By that, they meant that people’s beliefs are internally consistent, they make decisions based on all the relevant information and their preferences don’t change. In a series of simple, brilliant experiments, Kahneman and Tversky refuted that definition of rationality. But Kahneman never contended that people are irrational. Instead he argued that they are inconsistent, emotional and easily fooled—most easily of all, by themselves. “Self-delusion helps sustain most people,” he told me years ago. In short, he made the case that people are neither rational nor irrational; they are, simply, human. Kahneman often said that decades of studying the human mind had taught him how to recognize—but not how to avoid—these pitfalls of decision-making. … the first draft of a chapter Kahneman sketched out in early 2008 for “Thinking, Fast and Slow.” He wrote: “During her last illness my mother lost her remembering self…she could not tell you much about her current stay in the hospital because she remembered so little of it. I discovered to my dismay that I knew much more about what she had gone through than she did.” the first draft of a chapter Kahneman sketched out in early 2008 for “Thinking, Fast and Slow.” He wrote: “During her last illness my mother lost her remembering self…she could not tell you much about her current stay in the hospital because she remembered so little of it. I discovered to my dismay that I knew much more about what she had gone through than she did.”

I am still active, enjoying many things in life (except the daily news) and will die a happy man. But my kidneys are on their last legs, the frequency of mental lapses is increasing, and I am ninety years old. It is time to go. 

Kahneman knew the psychological importance of happy endings. In repeated experiments, he had demonstrated what he called the peak-end rule: Whether we remember an experience as pleasurable or painful doesn’t depend on how long it felt good or bad, but rather on the peak and ending intensity of those emotions.        Danny was able to create a happy ending to a 90-year life, in keeping with his peak-end rule. He could not have achieved this if he had let nature take its course.”        Did turning 90 play a role in his decision? Kahneman and Tversky’s early research showed that when people are uncertain, they will estimate numbers by “anchoring,” or seizing on any figure that happens to be handy, regardless of how relevant it is to the decision.    Another of Kahneman’s principles was the importance of taking what he called the outside view: Instead of regarding each decision as a special case, you should instead consider it as a member of a class of similar situations. Gather data on comparable examples from that reference class, then consider why your particular case might have better or worse prospects.        Paul Slovic, a psychologist at the University of Oregon who befriended Kahneman more than 50 years ago, says, “Danny was the type of person who would think long and hard about things, so I figured he must have thought about it very slowly and deliberatively. Of course, those of us who spend our lives studying decisions, we think a lot about the reasons for those decisions. But often the reasons aren’t reasons. They’re feelings.” https://www.wsj.com/arts-culture/books/daniel-kahneman-assisted-suicide-9fb16124

Feelings as polarities are the structure of Harv’s self and within his definition of a universal human self — the polarities that by definition encompass human all feeling descriptions are joy-sad, love-hate, and freedom-fear, oriented in general, positive to negative.  Freedom and fear are not seen as linear but circular, the edge of one’s pie-of-life if you will.
