The Key To Happiness Is Not Being

There Is Nothing Inherently Fair About Equalizing Incomes. If The Government Penalizes You For Working Harder Than Somebody Else, That Is Unfair. If You Save Your Money But Retire With The Same Pension As A Free-spending Neighbor, That Is Also Unfair.

The Truth Is That Relative Income Is Not Directly Related To Happiness. Nonpartisan Social-survey Data Clearly Show That The Big Driver Of Happiness Is Earned Success: A Person's Belief That He Has Created Value In His Life Or The Life Of Others.

We Will Have Bigger Bureaucracies, Bigger Labor Unions, And Bigger State-run Corporations. It Will Be Harder To Be An Entrepreneur Because Of Punitive Taxes And Regulations. The Rewards Of Success Will Be Expropriated For The Sake Of Attaining Greater Income Equality.

Happiness Isn't Found In Some Finite Checklist Of Goals That We Can Diligently Complete And Then Coast. It's How We Live Our Lives In The Process. That's Why The Four Pillars Of Happiness Are Faith, Family, Community And Meaningful Work. Those Are Priorities We Have To Keep Investing In.

Whether We Look At Capitalism, Taxes, Business, Or Government, The Data Show A Clear And Consistent Pattern: 70 Percent Of Americans Support The Free Enterprise System And Are Unsupportive Of Big Government.
