White youths happier than others

NEW YORK - From their relationships to their jobs to their money — even from they time they first roll out of bed — young white Americans are happier with life than their minority counterparts.

According to an extensive survey of 1,280 people ages 13-24 by The Associated Press and MTV, 72 percent of whites say they are happy with life in general, compared with 51 percent of Hispanics and 56 percent of blacks.

I would be interested in learning what the economic and social stats were of the sample size (which was only 1,280). Those can make a significant difference in the outcome. Interesting read, if nothing else.....
