Knowledge = Happiness...What is Knowledge?

"Knowledge is, in every country, the surest basis of public happiness."
-George Washington's First Annual Message, 1790

We have a population of people who have associate, bachelor, master and doctoral degrees at a higher percentage than ever before. Yet, this same academic demographic is so unhappy, feeling the need to parade their discontent in vivid display of hatred for the capitalistic society Washington spent his life establishing.

If Washington's case is correct, then what does this say about our educational systems in America today?
