'Live Free & Die?': Life Expectancy in The U.S. Is Declining at a Rapid Rate
home knowledge via msn ^ | 7/13/23 | Story by Tyler Connaghan

he issue of declining life expectancy in the country has garnered increased focus in recent times, particularly during the pandemic, where the biggest decline since WWII was observed.

With the ongoing decline in life expectancy in the United States, a recent report reveals that Americans were at a disadvantage starting in the 1950s. Unfortunately, the situation has only worsened over time.

Furthermore, a recent American Journal of Public Health study highlights over 50 countries with better life expectancy rates than the U.S., and a few states within the U.S. may bear partial responsibility for this trend.

I don’t know if it’s a direct result from Covid lockdowns, but my volleyball leagues have around 33% of the pre Covid participants.
Fewer people at my gym lifting, and I’m almost always alone on the track.

Government health care, government education, government control of media, government control of elections - we are no longer necessary to them.

Could be true

I’m trying to find something appropriate

It may turn out to be two part-time jobs

Mostly red states. Blue states are doing fine.

(They are all busy working 3 jobs)

I guess that was easier to write than:

“They wanted to buy gasoline, food and pay the rent under the Joe Biden Disaster of an Administration, so they needed to work three jobs”

The odd thing is there are help wanted signs everywhere.
They aren’t great jobs, but they pay.
I don’t understand how people are paying bills.

The average is being skewed downward by the drug OD deaths among younger men (mainly) thanks in part to our open border, but those who live clean are still likely statistically to live into their 70’s and beyond.

Nobody wants to work with the public

I won’t do it again

And yes, most of the problem are the thieves

But one reason I started SSI early

I understand not wanting to work with the public, but there has to be young people needing money, right?
I’m a remote worker, and we always have tons of work.
It will likely continue well beyond my working, and living, years.

I miss my old career in I/T but the 2008 crash and H1-B left me not working

I have an extreme dislike for politicians selling out American citizens

(Does it show? 😂)

I would bet that MANY families are paying more for their CELL PHONE USAGE than a real house payment is.

I know people who bitch about how they cannot “afford” anything, but they waste $$$$$ relentlessly on “WANTS” NOT NEEDS.

I never made more than $20 an hour in my entire life, and I OWN all my property, vehicles, etc.

MOST of those who are “UNEMPLOYED” CANNOT pass drug tests.

Legalize Marijuana == cannot get a job. EMPLOYER cannot shoulder the LIABILITY problems.

Employer also wants you to show up for your shift on time-—Know how to read/write/speak ENGLISH & not be covered with tattoos.

The attitude of today’s “employees’ is disgusting.

Nothing wrong with that. I despise that as well.
Americans first.
