According to a recent study conducted by Jeffrey Sachs, director of the Earth Institute at Columbia University, “the United States, one of the economically richest countries, comes in at #15 on the Happiness Scale” (Schulte). The Huffington Post also reports that a recent poll of 2,345 U.S. adults found that “only one in three Americans say they’re very happy,” and that “certain groups, such as minorities, recent graduates and the disabled” are especially stressed (Gregoire). Many questions arise from such statistics, and an especially important one that Walter Mosley asks in his article, “Get Happy,” published in The Nation in 2009, is to what extent is the government responsible for the happiness of its citizens? Mosley concludes that there should be a branch of the U.S. government that oversees citizens’ happiness, but this is a ridiculous suggestion since happiness is an elusive state of mind that cannot be legislated. Introduction #2 What is happiness? Are you happy? Happiness means being alive and healthy. Some people, like Walter Mosley, blame other people for the fact that they’re not happy. They look for handouts and blame anyone but themselves for the fact that they’re miserable. Therefore, the government should not be held responsible for my happiness because they can’t control the bad decisions you make. Introduction #3 The Declaration of Independence proclaims that one fundamental right of living in America is the pursuit of “Life, Liberty,” and “Happiness.” In the article, “Get Happy,” published in The Nation in 2009, Walter Mosley responds to the Declaration, questioning why so many Americans are still generally unhappy, despite this longstanding pursuit. He ultimately argues that the government is responsible for ensuring a “contented existence” for all citizens, that many of us “suffer under a corporatized bureaucracy where homelessness, illiteracy, poverty, malnourishment (both physical and spiritual) and an unrelenting malaise” that should be addressed by a new governmental department. While even Mosley acknowledges that such a suggestion might seem frivolous, at first, I agree with his vision of a nation where the government provides for all its citizens, where the beliefs put forth in the Declaration of Independence are upheld for all.
Upon first glance, perhaps Mosley’s suggestion might seem outrageous. How can the government legislate happiness? However, as he points out, happiness is more than “a state of mind.” He ends his article with important questions about what citizens need to “be assured of…path[s] to a contented existence:” “Enough food to eat? Health? Help with childcare? A decent, fulfilling education? Should we feel tha tthe land we stand on is our own?” The answer to all of these questions is a clear “yes.” Therefore, he is correct. The government is absolutely responsible for ensuring that each citizen has access to each of these necessities, and therefore, it is responsible for ensuring happiness for all. Conclusion #3 Mosley himself argues that happiness is a “state of mind,” and I would add that it is fleeting, and therefore not something that the government is responsible for. Certainly, the Declaration of Independence calls for the “unalienable right” of the “pursuit of Happiness,” but Mosley fails to focus on the fact that each citizen already has the right to a pursuit, and nothing more could be done by the government beyond providing that right. Beyond that, the government has no power over our happiness, and Mosley’s call to spend more money on a branch that would try to legislate a fleeting emotion would be an utter waste of resources.
