Death rates are down and dropping.

The death rates have dropped a lot over the last few years thus its raising the life expectancy. For men it’s 75.4 and 80.5 this is about a few years longer then I was 10 years ago. Many things have dropped to make this happen some of those things are, homicide is down, cancer deaths are down, heart disease is down. Although cancer and heart disease are still the highest death rate there is. Although about 40 years was the life expectancy years ago was about 40 for men, this was do that they had dangers work and disease they had to worry about unlike today where a lot of stuff was don’t for you. The population in people over 75 is .6% of our total population.
This number is said to double over the next 50 years. The gap of the years in between men and women is decreasing. Scientist says its do to better medicine and smarter patients. They also say that we are exercising more and being more active, but we are still getting fatter. This is what our country is known for most of the time is being fat, not for being a powerful country. Men will start living longer as well as females. But women will most likely stay on top of who lives longer.
