The United States boasts the second-largest economy in the world — but perhaps at the cost of Americans’ quality of life, a new report revealed.
A State of the Nation report released Monday analyzed how the country is faring compared to others based on data from 1990 to 2023 across 15 topics, including the economy, the environment, life satisfaction, mental health and inequality. The report underscored how the U.S. is thriving economically but failing in nearly every other aspect analyzed.
