The US is the only industrial country with steadily declining life expectancy.
It plateau’d in 2008, then began declining in 2012, and has been going down
since.
What was interesting in the study is the broad demographic that is affected.
Yea, there’s a lot of druggies and po foke dying early, but there’s also a
plague of obesity and related early mortality among middle-class people.
If anyone is really interested I can probably dig up the peer-reviewed
meta-analysis.
