Why Middle Class Whites Are Dying Faster (In 6 Painful Charts)

In 2015, a blockbuster study came to a surprising conclusion: Middle-aged white Americans are dying younger for the first time in decades, despite positive life expectancy trends in other wealthy countries and other segments of the US population.
The research, by Princeton University’s Anne Case and Angus Deaton, highlighted the links between economic struggles, suicides, and alcohol and drug overdoses.
Since then, Case and Deaton have been working to more fully explain their findings.
They’ve now come to a compelling conclusion: It’s complicated. There’s no single reason for this disturbing increase in the mortality rate, but a toxic cocktail of factors.
In a new 60-page paper, “Mortality and morbidity in the 21st Century,” out in draft form in the Brookings Papers on Economic Activity Thursday, the researchers weave a narrative of “cumulative disadvantage” over a lifetime for white people ages 45 through 54, particularly those with low levels of education.
Along with worsening job prospects over the past several decades, this group has seen their chances of a stable marriage and family decline, along with their overall health. To manage their despair about the gap between their hopes and what’s come of their lives, they’ve often turned to drugs, alcohol, and suicide.

There is still much more to discuss in this article. Lets say it is a teaser article. Lets look at GMO’s in our food,Chem trails in our air, EMF in the form of cell towers all over the place, cell phones being used with radiation coming out of them.
Lets look at the suicides of all the bankers well off no money killing themselves at the peak of their career, and simple workers dying at this age. Did you know that there is such a thing as a peasant life insurance policy that can be taken out on their workers by the corporation that hired that person.
