What has not been reported is the break-down of that trend by race and ethnicity and if that trend includes both citizens and immigrants!
As good as legal immigrants may be, many of them (eg Christian refugees from Islamist terrorism) lived hard lives in lands with very low life expectacies. We accept that as a part of the price of welcoming many, many, thousands of vetted immigrants who obeyed our democratically enacted immigration laws.
As illegal immigrants are not vetted and hide from authorities upon their invasion of my nation (nb My father and grandparents were legal immigrants) they may, in person or by infecting others, be responsible for the cited reduction.
We might also determine if there has been a greater reduction in life expectancy in those States (eg California) with an above-average number/percentage of illegal immigrants.
This appears to be another example of half-truths being far more dangerous that outright lies.

An interesting dialogue is worth comment. I feel that you must write more on this subject, it might not be a taboo topic but generally persons are not enough to talk on such topics. To the next. Cheers online casino games
