America will NEVER be great!!!

U.S. life expectancy decreased by an 'alarming' amount during pandemic
Health in the U.S. has been lagging behind comparable countries for decades.

Average life expectancy in the United States plummeted in 2020, widening the life expectancy gap between the U.S. and other high-income countries. The decline was particularly sharp among Hispanic and Black Americans, a new study found.

Health experts anticipated life expectancy would drop during the pandemic, but how much it did came as a surprise.

“I naively thought the pandemic would not make a big difference in the gap because my thinking was that it’s a global pandemic, so every country is going to take a hit,” said Steven Woolf, director emeritus of the Center on Society and Health at Virginia Commonwealth University, who led the new study. “What I didn’t anticipate was how badly the U.S. would handle the pandemic.”

Following WWII, life expectancy in the U.S. was climbing for decades. But in the 1990s, the pace of longevity started to slow. Americans went from having a higher life expectancy compared to comparable nations to falling below average. The trend continued until around 2010, when the average age of death in the U.S. plateaued, and then entered a three-year decline in 2014.

“The gap between the U.S. and other countries was really widening at that point,” Woolf said.

As long as we continue to tolerate the overt criminality and corruption that a corporate owned government brings, it's all downhill from here.

Well, we went from 'Hunter-Gathers' to the 'Age of Agriculture' with the accompanying Feudal System. Now we are in the Corporate/Capitalist System practiced around the world.
Do you see another 'System' emerging?

If one does not, how will life quality for average Americans improve?

"Capitalism" is in direct conflict with democracy. Corporate welfare since 2008 is close to $30 trillion with a T. Corporations used that free money for massive stock buy-backs instead of training and retaining workers.

All over the world, the people who do all the work are being carefully brainwashed by media owned by the very rich, and frozen by fear. Obviously the answer is democratic control of the economy and about half the work, which could be achieved in a week or so if the mugs would wake up. Most, apparently, would prefer to burn to death than show any guts.

I am interested in 'Quality of Life'. How does Quality of Life improve when the consensus is to Import millions of Third World Labor into your Country?

[PostmodernProphet]

of course it will......Biden won't be around that long....

My view: Capitalism is an 'Economic System'.
It's practiced in Democratic Countries, like in Europe.
It's practiced in Authoritarian Countries, like in China and Russia.

So, I am able to separate the two.

hey, moron, we already have democratic control of the economy because most of you retarded plebes keep electing those people who bilk you of your hard eared money. It's obvious that you like being robbed by the people you elect

That is not the cause of this problem.

My understanding is that 'America' was founded as a 'Corporate State'. Originally by the Corporation that funded the Colonizing (The Virginia Company), and later by the Wealthy Elites. The British East India Company being a Model.

I totally agree with you.

And what we have seen since the 60s is an ever increasing leftist influence in America that has destroyed any and all concepts of being responsible for ones own actions. It's amazing how the left NEVER considers that what they have done to America may not be good for America. They are selfish children.
