Death Rate USA 2024. PDF Version
The death rate in the United States has risen to the point where in 2024 we have more deaths per 1000 people than what was experienced in the 1950s. The increase has all taken place following the implementation of the Affordable Care Act.
United citizens show little to no concern. Perhaps they would if our rising death rate was covered on the news. Thinking in the light of reality, I look for and focus on root causes for phenomenon such as this.
So, what is the root cause of the rising death rate? It would be simple enough to simply cite the Affordable Care Act. Certainly, it is a catalyst but, it is not the true root cause. How did such a destructive piece of legislation ever get passed to begin with?
Root causes can be traced back to the big bang but we are not going back nearly that far far. The bill got passed because of trust of leadership. Democracy mal-functions when citizens trust their leaders, Democracy evolved because leadership cannot be trusted.
I’ve heard that one of Trump’s appointees wants to change Medicare to Medicare Advantage for all. I certainly hope that doesn’t happen!.That would be a feeding frenzy of deny, delay/defend and depose as the insurance companies rake in even more multibillions. And the life expectancy will continue to drop.
What something is and what it is name are two different things. Insurance? What we have is Americans paying for healthcare management services. This is called insurance. Insurance is something entirely different. You would think that in life, thinking is not allowed.
Americans on Medicaid are perfect resources for the healthcare industry. Others are not. Why not make all of the folk perfect resources?
