Um, actually it's good that we talk about the reasons: overregulation, political correctness and high taxes.
We could have cheap eggs yesterday if we abolished the FDA and IRS and I guess Tumblr.

retirement age went up because the wealthiest 20% lived longer, pushing up life expectancy. now that its going down will they lower retirement age? probably not without actual violence

I think, like in the olden days, average life expectancy is going down because we're killing more children. Once you're an adult you're still likely to live a long, long burden on our unprepared social net.

more suicides, drug overdoses (called accidents)

COVID

life expectancy went down 6 years in the last 2 years by the way. basically you got 8 years closer to death in just 2 years of lived time lol. we're all the demographic who will die earlier

edit: asian women did not see decline actually. but other adults did I guess

edit: sorry the article wasn't clear. it's 6 years just for native americans, according to some other article.

In Australia you can sell overpriced funeral insurance to Indigenous people (pretending to be an Aboriginal-run not for profit organisation when you are definitely neither of these things), pay the vast majority of the profits to your shareholders, and then have your company collapse, disappear to Vanuatu and leave the indigenous people with nothing.

I would be shocked if nobody was doing this to native Americans.

quote:

The Aboriginal Community Benefit Fund (ACBF) was a Gold Coast-based private business that for decades aggressively sold funeral insurance almost exclusively to Aboriginal people, including children and babies
At its peak ACBF had about 25,000 clients. Trading as Youpla, it had 13,000 clients at the time of liquidation, all of whom face losing the money they paid in
Contributions of active members to the three funds totalled $39.2m
The liquidator, SV Partners, says there is just $11.9m left – the largest fund (Fund 3) has just $207,000
ACBF-Youpla was investigated by NSW’s Department of Fair Trading in 1992 and by the financial services regulator, Asic, in 1999, 2004 and 2014, but the business was allowed to continue
The company became a case study at the banking royal commission in 2018
Changes implemented following the royal commission led to Youpla being unable to sell to new customers without a licence
The financial ombudsman, Afca, has received 700 complaints about Youpla group since 2018, and issued 178 decisions to date, all in favour of complainants citing misleading or deceptive conduct
Afca estimates it has awarded more than $1.4m in compensation, but 61 determinations remained unpaid, worth around $500,000

In future you're going to have to work till you're 80 and when your body starts falling apart they'll just chuck you in a dumpster unless you opted in for body falling apart protection back when you were 45, $5.46 out of every paycheck forever and ever amortized no worries don't ever fall or get shot in the face because then they'll decide youre more likely to have your body fall apart and they'll raise your rates
