 a problem, which negatively affects the views of any country’s population. Even though citizens of these

 are addicted to banned substances like cocaine, and most of the addicts, even those who are rich, tend to commit suicide. In summary, the increased wealth of

 happy as there are many other social issues like gun violence and increasing cost of properties, which make them unhappy.
