You do realize that some of those counties don't count birth deaths the same way the US does. Just like most of those countries have different definitions of what defines murder.

Really? How many different ways are there to count a birth and a death? Wait till 8 days before counting a birth and naming a kid like my people did traditionally for boys? (Who cares about girls..) But usually dead is dead, and that's what we're talking about. Not murder, but whether someone ain't living no more.
We are only accustomed to dealing with like twenty online personas at a time so when we only have about ten people some people have to be strawmanned in order to advance our same relative go nowhere nonsense positions. -TheReal_ND
The U.S. includes non-viable premies in their birth figures. They also count miscarries that occur in the hospital if the fetus had a chance at survival.

Rugged individual me.
How long other Americans live is none of my concern, how long I live is none of their concern.

Interesting. But how big a piece is that? Any stats? I'm doubtful it can throw the "life expectancy" off by much. Reminds me a of fun story I heard on the radio about a hospital who kept a post-surgical brain dead patient alive for a year to groom their success stats. The family had no idea of the actual diagnosis.

The birth thing is just one example of differences in recording accuracy. You want to see some real life-expectancy problems, look at Polynesians. Obesity is the real difference, and that can’t be blamed on America’s healthcare.
