Red states have a lower life expectancy than blue states.

Being a Republican is bad for the mind and body.

Intellectually dishonesty……

The chart rearranges life expectancy data we were already told. Life expectancy has increased, democrats on average are younger, the later you were born in the US, all things being equal the longer your life expectancy is….

Is this a response to my post? I honestly can’t tell.

I hope not, cause it makes no sense in regards to red state vs. blue state life expectancy.

Maybe not.

There is something patently ridiculous about trying to make a case that conservative government lowers life expectancy in the US. I suspect the methodology and motives here, plus more bad reporting from USA Today in an effort to collaborate, and Lefties continuing to dismiss even things as plain as the nose on your face if accepting that means rejecting a narrative they happen to like. I don't care to investigate further anything so preposterous as the conservative government claim.

I do accept much of the other stuff posited about life expectancy growth, which had been constant, but recently leveled off and that currently [note the word] life expectancy has gotten shorter [but not going back to 1950!] Lifestyles are mostly the reason, I think, and the articles seem to say so. Plus the death rate during the pandemic.

Which is remarkable, when you think about how much previous generations smoked!

Even more when you consider that we do not have one!

Life expectancy is a funny thing. For example, if you play in the NFL your life expectancy goes down. But it is not just for head injuries, which you would believe if you just scratch the surface. Lots of these guys die in car accidents and other weird things, driving the average down. With the money they made they should live longer, being able to afford care. But no.

I could ponder some reasons the life expectancy has leveled off but must go to work.

It could be electrical events (electromagnetic radiation) that bring life expectancy back to the upward trend line.

Then our bodies adapt, for the ones left living.

5G could be the cause of "turbo cancer" (cancer never cured and turbo is a recent development) and Covid (not a virus).

Possibly, also related to changing hormones in the body, in cases such as gender dsyphoria.


Electrical innovations may look like medical events throughout history since the invention of (harnessing) electricity.

It could even support the left's reasoning of climate change, like an atmospheric microwave affecting weather patterns.

An “ionospheric heater” owned until recently by the United States Air Force and operated
jointly with the Navy and the University of Alaska, HAARP is only the most powerful radio
transmitter on earth. Capable of emitting a peak effective radiated power of four billion watts, its
purpose is to set the biosphere to ringing. HAARP, whose 180 antenna towers sit on the northwest
tip of Alaska’s Wrangell-St. Elias National Park, has turned the ionosphere itself—the life-giving
layer of sky to which every creature is tuned (see chapter 9)—into a gigantic radio transmitter useful
for military communications, including communication with submarines. By aiming a narrow beam
of pulsating energy upwards, there near the North Pole where the aurora meets the earth, Project
HAARP can force rivers of sky to broadcast radio transmissions at the frequency of the pulsations,
and to send those signals to almost everywhere on earth. In 1988, when planning for HAARP was
still in its early stages, physicist Richard Williams, a consultant to Princeton University’s David
Sarnoff Laboratory, called the project “an irresponsible act of global vandalism.” “Look at the
power levels that will be used!” he wrote in Physics and Society, the newsletter of the American
Physical Society. “This is equivalent to the output of ten to 100 large power-generating stations.” In
1994, when HAARP’s first 18 antennas were about to be put into service, Williams was interviewed
by Earth Island Journal. “A ten-billion-watt generator,” he said, “running continuously for one
hour, would deliver a quantity of energy equal to that of a Hiroshima-sized atomic bomb.”
In March 1999, HAARP expanded to 48 antennas and an effective radiated power of almost one
billion watts. The rest of its complement of 180 antennas were delivered between 2004 and 2006,
enabling the facility to reach its full intended power during the winter of 2006-2007. Although the
Air Force shut HAARP down in 2014 and proposed to dismantle the facility, it instead was acquired
by the University of Alaska Fairbanks, which reopened the facility in February 2017 and has made
it available to the scientific community for research. The university is operating the facility at a loss,
and it announced in 2019 that if it does not get sufficient funding, it will shut down HAARP
permanently.

The frequencies of HAARP, says Warnke, superimpose unnatural magnetic fields on the natural
resonant frequencies of the sky, whose daily variations have not changed since life appeared on
earth. This is disastrous for bees. They “lose an orientation,” he says, “that served them for millions
of years as a reliable indicator of the time of day.”

life expectancy at birth in the US is about 79 now, but for "A 60-year-old non-smoking male in average health" it's about 81 according to a google search.

I think one thing is it's bound to level off somewhere and we may be close to reaching it. Let's say we somehow get most people to live a better lifestyle, maybe we can the age 60 group up to 84 and add 2 years for being female. How much further can it go? Let's say people of Japanese descent go on a genocidal campaign against everyone else*, then we add a couple more years to that! That might be it. There is going to be an upper limit. The public finally realizing this would disappoint certain Leftists who see an opportunity to advance their narrative in absolutely everything they can think of bar none.

In the meantime, once the data for all the transgender medical experiments comes in, for which we have no data at all now, we may find we've reduced life expectancy down to 79 for the 60 yo's. That will be blamed on conservatives.

* in the short term this would mean an extraordinary decrease in life expectancy. Apologies for my excessive imagination, and sense of humor, but wanted to make a point about the effect of the genes a population is born with

I look at the extremes to discover possibilities for the average.

So an extreme for life expectancy could be around 120 years of age (biblical), but many (if not most) of the old ones were smokers.


The theory of living to upper extremes for a smoker is related to nuclear radiation in the atmosphere.

From years of weapons' testing, particles flowing through the jet stream to all parts of the world.

Then the particles fall from the sky sprinkling the ground, crops, and water.

Smoking supposedly protects the lungs with mucus against these dangerous particles in the air.

Then a person can spit the mucus out or it's somehow ejected from the body and prevented from being absorbed in the organs.
