      Ireland surprised me, but I have expected that most European countries will make the list

        Then take into account the fact that well over a million people died in the so called potato famine in the middle of the 1800s, and a further 2 million or so emigrated to escape it.

        I say the so called potato famine 'cause i personally think the British used the potato blight as a convenient means of attempted genocide. There was more than enough food to feed the people, but that's another topic for another time.

          i am american and very well traveled. you dont have to travel far to immediately see that america is faaaaaaar from being at the top of the list for overall quality of living for the general population. but then again... america never tried to be and thats not what a free market economy is about.

                Well, I don't live in a fucking hut!

                health - everyone bitches about health care. I had my toncils taken out a few years back and it cost me zero.
                freedom - I can move from state to state without any restrictions, and I can leave the country and go where I want at any time.
                unemployment - I've never been unemployed in my life.
                family life - I live in a country where the divorce rate is nearly 50%, yet I've been with my wife for 12 years and married for seven years.
                climate - I live in Phoenix and haven't seen snow in about 15 years.
                political stability - Even though Bush is in office, I don't see our government being overthrown.
                security - There is a police station down the street from where I live and we have no crime on my street.
                gender equality - With the exception of Steve LIghtspeed, every boss I've ever had has been a woman.
                family and community life - I have a five year old daughter that has learned a ton in her first year of school. As for my community, I have everything I need with two miles of my house, including a race car track and an ice skating ring. I also have four great parks near my house.

                I'm all set folks.

                  US and Canada both used to rank up near the top... the US economy going down the shitter and the EU kicking ass must be the cause.

                    They got it all wrong. They are either all pissheads in voting for Ireland or they all like shitty weather. Have a mate who lives in Luxemburg. He has a highly paid job with the government, 32 years of age and can't afford a house - that sucks.

                    I live in the tropics in Australia. Coldest day of the year would be around 65-70 degrees Farenheidt, beautiful turquoise waters, the Great Barrier Reef, easy lifestyle, homes that are affordable, etc, etc. Sometime life can be so ho hum. Even murders and car crashes are reported on the national news as they don't happen frequently. Aaaah, what a life. The clots who didn't pick Australia as #1 must be pissheads.

                      Australia is indeed one of the best countries in the world in my opinion. I'm pretty happy here, although i do plan to move back to Ireland eventually. But i know that i'll be making several trips back to Australia each year. I'd miss this place too much.

                        IMO, the tropics in Australia are unbearably hot and humid. Nice to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there.
                        I post on GFY so that when people ask me what I do,
                        I can tell them that I work with the mentally retarded.

                                    Not all people wants to live in USA, and actually.....USA isnt the centre of the world.
                                    Shitty weather in Europe? I dont think so....it would be so boring to have 25C every day.

                                      I didn't expect Mexico to be in the top 10 but it's gotta be higher than the US, if we're truly considering 'quality of life.' That's the prime reason I left the US and moved down here, specifically for the "quality of life." It's unquestionably BETTER here! One hellova lot CHEAPER, too!

                                        Don't make me laugh. Americans are immigrating to Canada, not the other way around.
