		<description>It's an insult that you would even think of comparing the United States to a dinky country such as Finland. Get over yourselves already!</description>

		<description>" So even if people look happy and are smiling, how can one be sure what their real emotions are inside?"

I would guess that Americans are way more guilty of this than Finns.  IMO, Finns are much more straight-forward with things, even if they show less emotions than Americans.</description>

		<description>A general comment about levels of happiness and satisfaction among Finns is that surveys can be very misleading. In my time here I've noticed that it is common among Finns to say that they are satisfied even if they are not, because that's what their culture teaches them. So even if people look happy and are smiling, how can one be sure what their real emotions are inside?</description>
