A few things I've learned here at college.

1) Not only can your happiness be quantified, it can be negative.
2) A human life is worth $7 Million
3) You never learn Math or Chemestry, you just get less worse at it.

With the Dow Jones Industrial Average at an all-time high, reaching over the 12,000 mark, I would debate your figure of 7 mil for a human life. Perhaps 7 mil would have been a good figure in the early part of the decade, but inflation has caused this number to jump a bit. Using a formula I can't speak of right now, I have a human life being worth $7,678,325.15. Perhaps your figure didn't consider the GDP weighed against the unemployment rate, but mine does. You also have to consider the fact that the Euro has been stabilized lately. You college kids think you're so damn smart.

Actually, I don't agree with the 7 million fact. When we can artificially recreate a human and give it life for the averagee life span of a human, then we can give the human body a price, I think.
