The exact definition of happiness is a big debate within Western philosophy and psychology, with some associating happiness with life satisfaction, others with the abundance of positive emotions and feelings, and still others building more complex accounts of happiness as an individual responding favorably, in emotional terms, to one’s life. But for our present discussion, we don’t need to settle on an exact definition of happiness, as what I am going to say about it applies to all definitions of happiness that see it as some set of subjective feelings, emotions, or favorable responses to life. For discussion about the definition of happiness, see, e.g., Daniel M. Haybron, The Pursuit of Unhappiness: The Elusive Psychology of Weil-Being (New York: Oxford University Press, 2008).

In philosopher Robert Nozick’s thought experiment about an experience machine providing all possible pleasures is the classic example of this. People are arguably not too eager to plug into such a machine. See Robert Nozick, Anarchy, State, and Utopia (Padstow: Blackwell, 1974), 42.
