No suspicion of foul play

Ruled by criminals

With the deterioration of our ecosystem, it makes sense lifespans will decrease. But this one seems fishy. At the turn of the century, which preceded the discovery of antibiotics, the average life span was 32. Back then, childbirth was actually dangerous and the amount of kids dying under 3 years old was wild. These were the primary reasons for the 32 year average lifespan. Which means 26 in todays world is almost certainly a sign of fowl play...

With the roll out of abortion bans in the US soon that forgotten past will return in full force.
