They seem to have a narrative, and have segmented the US data only, in order to tell their story. I wonder how minorities fare in other countries? Does this control for people spending most or all of their lives in the country they were measured in? Like almost all US population studies, it comes down to higher socioeconomic classes doing better, and then gets turned into a racial disparity bc that's how the US breaks down. what conclusions did you come to?

People live longer in high trust environments. Economic insecurity kills. It is better to all be poorer collectively than it is to have a bunch of haves and have nots. Americans GDP mock Japan, or the UK, but maybe there’s more to life than that. Collectivism is better for life expectancy than individualism. Guns kill people and they are more likely to do so in environments like the above (low trust ones with haves and have nots)

ahh reading the summary - its more a discussion on disparities across regional, economic, race, and social differences in that case would be nice to see the the other 6 Americas for reference - and those insights specifically regarding the change in life expectancy from 2000 - 2021 and how trends shifted in the 2010's and post covid are the bigger takeaways from a deeper skim.

Also this needs to be adjusted for post mnra shot numbers. It’s down across the board 20-30% :(

We should learn what the Japanese + Asian Americans are doing to live longer and do more of that. Reminds me of this documentary: https://www.netflix.com/title/81214929

I would say that lower income in the USA do not have proper healthcare and that results in the lower life expectancy. I also think that the people from Latin American and Asian cultures living in the US maintain their higher level of community support that is in their cultures in other countries to their lives in the US. Community is one major key in longevity.

Stress kills. East Asians have more balanced diet (more veggies, culture around food etc), also they tend to be tightly knit units even when they immigrate.

This brings up a lot more questions than hypotheses. I wonder what access to quality food medical care, mental healthcare, and community each of these sub-sects gets. Comparing native Americans at 64 to Asian Americans at 84 is staunchly diverging— one group was forced into poverty and camps while the other minority either chose to immigrate here for financial betterment, and I wonder if that’s relevant to this data. It’s very interesting, but it paints an incomplete picture from the author

Curious how much variance there is in the quality of health insurance across these different American groups. I know a lot of people are terrified to go to the hospital. I know Medicaid exists but still varies by state and I'm not sure people have a good mental model for the complexities of the health insurance industrial complex, not everyone can afford to play the "deny claims early and often" game.

Those asterisks seem to be making the disparity greater than in actually is and I therefore don’t trust this data

Great read and study, thanks for sharing. It’s a bit scary but not surprising to see the decline of the non-metro white population in education and health directly correlate but promising to see the overall rise of education across the board.
