That’s a problem. The right people aren’t having enough kids and their dumber counterparts are having too many.

I think I saw a movie about this once.

2020 saw twice as large of a drop as 2021, and there weren’t vaccines for the gen pop in 2020….






Looks like 2021 had a much bigger pop with vaccines than 2020 without.

I don’t know how most of them can afford it. I was in line behind some woman at the gas station yesterday and her carton of cigs was like $117.
I don't eat/pay for lunch and spend the money on cigs to chain smoke on my lunch break.

No, I skipped the last booster but told the elderly in my life to get it.

Haven’t worn a mask since the mandate was lifted at work.

Poor diet

Not exercising

Hormone blockers

We've always had poor diets, lack of exercise, and heart attacks and cancers, and suicides and the we still kept getting older and older

In fact, the US had upward tick in longevity except for the Civil War, and WW I years. Even during WWII our technological advancements allowed an upward trend in longevity

US longevity peaked in 2019

Then the vaccine was introduced in 2020, and longevity since has dropped us back to 1995 levels. A drop larger than any war era, when people were dying in their teens and early 20s as soldiers

Even if that were true, you would have seen a peak, then a gradual decline in longevity. Similar to a Bell curve

This massive of a drop in just 2 years has a to have an outlier event such as a war, famine, drought, etc. The only thing introduced in a massive enough scale for the US since 2019 peak, is the vaccine

it's because they eat less processed food, take less medication, have more vacation, own less, and consume very little high fructose corn syrup (if any)

and that's because of their socialist government
