How did they measure happiness?

If people only care about politics when the system is broken, why do 80-90% vote in elections.

My point is that people don't vote because the system is broken. People are more likely to vote if they believe it to make a difference.

People in the US have lost faith in democracy. This is unlikely to cause more people to vote. I'm not offering a solution. Just that things are not magically going to become better because people are going to start voting when things are this bad.
