The Economist had an interesting article. They surveyed citizens of different countries on how satisfied they are with the state of their nation. China led the way with 87 percent satisfaction. No capitalist country broke 50 percent. Emerging nations are seeing a recovery that is far outstripping the traditional "rich" nations.
