not counting the fact they've pushed retirement age past average life-expectancy...
Life expectancy at age 25 is how much longer people live on average given they've survived to age 25. In medieval England, life expectancy at birth for boys born to families that owned land was a mere 31.3 years. However, life expectancy at age 25 for landowners in medieval England was 25.7.

Re-phrase that. The logic is wonky.
Life expectancy is a population-level statistic that reflects the conditions and experiences of a huge variety of people with very different health conditions and behaviors, some who die at very young ages, some who live to be over 100 years old, and lots whose life spans fall somewhere in between. Life expectancy is not a promise (or a threat!) about the life span of any single person.

Facebook of course! It's been around since before TimeWarner!
@lucifargundam @ktdoggett
lots of country have their populace live in near medieval conditions today. Native Villages in remote rural areas for example. I think they have higher life expectancy than we think.

This is the bottom of the list: country, avg, female, male.
