In fact I believe most of the oldest Americans have been black. Their genes seem to be fine.

If you pull up the stats, you will see that whites outlive blacks by quite a margin. Part may be "nurture," but it is mostly "nature."

Take a look in our hospitals at the efforts to save premies. Way more than Europe.

In any case, if you get your wish, your children will suffer from it, IMO. We have been down this road before, haven't we? All from me on this subject for now.

Kyros,
One major stat you are missing is that in third world countries lots of folks of all ages die at home and are buried in small family or community plots.
These deaths are not reported and autopsies to determine cause of death for statistical purposes are not done.
