We have much more depression and suicides, we have much more

conviviality and superficial happiness. We have new fears and new
subject of despair (like atomic bombs, pollution,
prohibition, ...). I just mean that I am not completely persuaded
that the technological progresses made us more happy.
Of course there's not much depression and suicide in Syria - because
there's so much grief and homicide.
Yes during war, depression and suicide go away. But I don't see the
