Answer: The desire satisfaction theory states that the level of individuals happiness has to do with the satisfaction of their desires.

Explanation:

The desire satisfaction theory states that individuals level of well-being is directly proportional to the total level of desires satisfied in their life. According to the theory, one's life goes well once the person achieves his or her desires. Something is good for a person only if it satisfies the person's desires.

A desire might become defective because it is pointless not because the desire was not satisfied. Sometimes we have irrational or ill informed desires. An example is an individual who desires to draw a tattoo on his body but later becomes disappointed after drawing the tattoo. According to desire satisfaction theorists, this can be as a result of information failure. Also, theorists say that an individual might be worse off satisfying some desires not as a result of lower satisfaction gotten from the fulfillment of the desire but because the satisfaction is bad in itself. Lastly, theorists say a person may be disappointed because the desire is pointless and hence lacks excellence e.g. hitting a football against the wall or counting blade grasses.

Well, the best answer is: we don't really know for sure; the event wasn't documented properly.

There are some guesses though, and one of them is the following: the Liberty Bell cracked in 1824, when Marquis de Lafayette was visiting. Another time mentioned often is 1835.
