This is the ultimate irony. America spent 60 years trying to condemn Cubans to poverty. Yet Americans live less than Cubans do.

Life expectancy for men = 73.2 years in the USA.

So if I retire at 66, I can expect about 7.2 years of retirement. That would even be 1 year before my social security retirement age of 67. And I will have worked 52 years to achieve that retirement (I started a part time job at age 14). Work 52 to get 7.2.

Not exactly a great deal, is it? Shouldn't retirement be at least a decade?

But I was assured by the Anti-Tankies that everyone in Cuba gets executed every hour on the hour.

As a trans person I would unironically move to Cuba if they were accepting immigrants.

I love this title. You can hear the stank when they say "Cubans".

A small price to pay for freedom

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Other countries that are ahead of the U.S. in terms of life expectancy include: Colombia, Uruguay and Chile; Costa Rica, Panama and Puerto Rico; and Turkey, Greece and Albania.

The U.S. ranks around 50th in the world for life expectancy (depending on data and what is considered a country or territory), and this has dropped 2.7 years since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.

However, the decrease in mortality for pneumonia (38.5 percent) helped the other way, as did a reduction in risk from other respiratory illnesses and Alzheimer's disease.

The country has a high ratio of medical professionals and focuses on prevention and primary care.

In the years since, China's life expectancy has steadily caught up with, and could now overtake, that of the U.S., depending on the country's 2021 data.

According to the World Bank, global life expectancy dropped, from 72.76 to 72.75, for the first time in 2020, after recording 60 years of gains since 1960.
