"Happiness should be a top government priority, expert says"
Wait, I thought that proper food socialization and nutritional enforcement was the “top government priority.” Seriously. You government types need to pull your czars together and figure out some sort of centralized hierarchy. LAT: Someday in the not-too-distant future, the U.S. departments of Defense, Health and Human Services, Justice and Labor could be joined be a new executive branch entity: The Department of Happiness.

Several of Barack Obama’s top campaign supporters went from soliciting political contributions to working from within the Energy Department as it showered billions in taxpayer-backed stimulus money on alternative energy firms, iWatch News and ABC News have learned. One of them was Steven J. Spinner, a high-tech consultant and investor in energy companies who raised at least $500,000 for Obama. He became
