And they already spend a lot: on average more than 20% of economic output goes on social spending, or about $8,800 per person per year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even within individual countries, the healthiest and wealthiest with the most opportunities are still dissatisfied.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The report also shows that people do not want to roll back the state or cut down on social spending. On the contrary, they want more spending, and on average almost 40% say they\u2019re willing to pay more tax to improve public-health services and pensions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-21227\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ceo-na.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Captura-de-pantalla-2019-05-02-a-las-12.10.33.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"573\" height=\"343\" srcset=\"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Captura-de-pantalla-2019-05-02-a-las-12.10.33-200x120.png 200w, http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Captura-de-pantalla-2019-05-02-a-las-12.10.33-300x180.png 300w, http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Captura-de-pantalla-2019-05-02-a-las-12.10.33-400x239.png 400w, http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Captura-de-pantalla-2019-05-02-a-las-12.10.33-500x299.png 500w, http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Captura-de-pantalla-2019-05-02-a-las-12.10.33.png 573w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 573px) 100vw, 573px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The world\u2019s richest countries are full of anxious, alienated people:  [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":23489,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1069,50],"tags":[2046,721,99,1385,2873,2872,367,1744,541,737],"class_list":["post-21226","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-editors-choice","category-health","tag-anxious","tag-bloomberg","tag-ceo","tag-ceo-northam","tag-healthier-and-longer-lives","tag-life-quality","tag-oecd","tag-rich","tag-wealth","tag-worries"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21226","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=21226"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21226\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":23492,"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21226\/revisions\/23492"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/23489"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21226"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=21226"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=21226"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
