I would expect that declining life expectancy is over-represented in the poorest stratum of society (but I will look this up to be sure). It is not going to be rich kids getting anaphylaxis that are making up the numbers. Even obesity prevalence will be a function of the SES of the individual within the population. Same with drug abuse etc, etc. If these things are getting worse while economic indicators for the country overall are positive, then it shows that inequality within the country is getting worse in real ways. |
