Americans dying younger
Since 1980, Americans have tended overall to die younger than people
in other developed countries; since then, the problem has grown.
In 2019, 2/3 of a million more Americans died than would have died
if the US had been like those other countries.
Part of the problem is that the US lacks the national universal
medical system that other developed countries have. Another part is
that the US lacks the welfare system that other developed countries
have. Also contributing is the plutocratist politics of the US,
which impoverish an increasing fraction of Americans. Other social
problems in the US contribute too.
