Human
lifespans remain at 0 to 100+ and have held this range throughout recorded
history. Life expectancy measures the average of how the entire population is
doing.
Life
expectancy is a statistic based on the average age of those who died in a
specific year. US average life expectancy has risen from 47 in 1900 to 80 in
2019. Life expectancy data is affected
by abortions, wars, disease, accidents, crime and is calculated by averaging
age of a population at death.
The
reduction in 1918 for men was due to deaths in World War I. The increases in life expectancy in the 1920s
is due to water chlorination and sanitary sewers to prevent disease.
Social
Security was designed to provide a government pension in 1935 to begin at age
65, when life expectance was 60.
The
increases in the 1940s is due to the discovery of penicillin and availability
of anti-biotics to treat inflammation and epidemics. These increases
outstripped the loss of life reflected in US World War II deaths.
The
increases after the 1960s are due to $trillions being spent on US healthcare
and removing consumer control of prices with excessive government subsidies.
The increases in US population also affect this statistic.
