Middle-aged American white men are now facing declining life expectancy. For a number of reasons, mostly due to bad life style and risky choices. Anybody care to speculate when this 'trend' will reverse?

I am seeing large numbers of incredibly obese children up here in Canada-land. I believe the numbers are worse in the USA. If I had to guess, I would bet on life expectancy continuing to decline.

Sad, tragic. Whaddya do?
