Is it better to have higher personal and national debt ratios? Is it better to have more single parent households? Is it better to have higher murder rates? Is it better to have higher obesity rates? Is it better to have higher narcotics use? Technology has obviously improved. Economic development has lifted a lot of people out of poverty, globally. I’m not convinced that the American people are better off post 1964 than they were before.

There will always be spikes one way or another but even with a rise in extreme weather/climate events, weather/climate related deaths are historically low.

Given a choice, most people would take being fat and free over skinny and chattel.

The decline is from the all time highs that followed LBJ’s Great Society, yet they are still higher than prior to his "reforms.”
