Happiness as key?

[dimpy.handa]

Not necessarily "la la land," but a world in which people have more control over their lives and work.
I assume you're thinking of a criticism typical of capitalists:
"Workers would treat their jobs as a sort of property right, and would refuse to hire new workers on equal terms because doing so would dilute the current
workers' shares in the firm's profits. The probable result
would be that an elite class of workers in capital-intensive
firms would exploit new entrants into the work force much as
capitalists allegedly do today. As evidence, they point to
existing 'worker-controlled' firms such as law firms --
normally they consist of two tiers of workers, one of which
both works and owns the firm ('the partners'), while the
remainder are simply employees ('the associates' as well as
the secretaries, clerks, etc.)."

All human beings seek happiness. Some find it, then lose it. Others are able to hold onto it. Still others believe that a life of joy and contentment is an impossible dream.
What causes happiness?
I think Simply being satisfied in life is key to happiness

So genes, romantic partnerships, and family are the main keys to happiness. Genes are the hand we are dealt and are of limited interest when it comes to increasing happiness. So why are marriage and family so important? It seems that they keep us socially involved and lend a sense of purpose to our lives.

Yet many people lead happy lives without being married or having children. Most are deeply involved in their jobs, careers, creative endeavors, or hobbies. Feeling engaged and productive is the real key to happiness. We feel good when we are contributing to others.

Giving really is more pleasurable than receiving. Let's hope that folk give generously this crucial holiday season not only strengthening the national economy but boosting national happiness.
