When Death Becomes the Only Escape
What happens when an entire generation starts dying younger than their parents? In 2015, two Princeton economists uncovered something that shouldn't exist in modern America: middle-aged white people without college degrees were dying at increasing rates-not from cancer or heart disease, but from suicide, drug overdoses, and alcohol-related liver disease. This wasn't a blip. Between 1999 and 2017, roughly 600,000 Americans died these "deaths of despair"-a death toll rivaling the entire AIDS epidemic. While other wealthy nations continued their steady march toward longer lives, America broke the pattern. The mortality reversal didn't strike everyone equally. It carved a brutal line through American society based on a single factor: whether you held a bachelor's degree. For the 62% of Americans without one, life expectancy began moving backward-an occurrence unprecedented in peacetime modern history. What caused this quiet catastrophe unfolding in plain sight?
