It seems like our superior healthcare and shorter wait times would make us live much longer than brits.

I don't really mind the shorter lifespan because this place is kinda boring anyway and I'm pretty sure I'll run out of shite to do before I hit 70.

It's a combination.

Shitty food.
Stress.
Lack of exercise.
Lack of physical activity. (Different from exercise, walking at work. Gardening, etc. )
Substance abuse.

Etc

It's the crap they put in our foods. All of our over processed stuff. Fast food. Etc.

It's not even the obesity, it's the list of 30 ingredients in jarred spaghetti sauce. The canola oil even in Almond milk. Palm oilin peanut butter. Etc.

Honestly ...

1 - LBJ
2 - Higher African American Population, descendants of slaves.
3 - Higher stress levels.
4 - Less nurturing females.
5 - More drugs and alcohol abuse.

Prove me wrong.

I'm old and I've lived all over the world. It's been obvious for decades.

I'm done with the Saints until Dennis Allen is gone. He sucked arse his first time as a HC. He sucks now. It's time to get rid of the old regime completely and build something new.
