> The death rate among African Americans is up 4 percent, Hispanics 7 percent, whites 12 percent and Native Americans 18 percent. The rate for Asian Americans also has increased, but at a level that is not statistically significant.

I wonder about the racial differences too. Why are Asian Americans and African Americans much lower? Don't they deal with the same income inequalities?
