It's been so bad that life expectancy has been dropping since 2019, linked heavily with suicide and opioid addiction.
Best part is the only Democrat primary candidate to even mention it was Mathman Enlightened Centrist Andrew Yang of all people. Tens of thousands of people kill themselves each year, and all they get is a suicide hotline and an "I voted" sticker to "defeat Donald Trump".
Andrew "Gut Social Services" Yang was the only one who was talking about the social crisis in this nation last election cycle and nobody's even talking about it now.
Alienation of people from their social environment is so harsh that family relations look more like interaction between acquaintances, especially among white Americans. This isn't sustainable long-term.
