#DemographicWinter marches on . . . today the Census Bureau released new data on the age structure of America's population. Disturbingly, the growth in non-working-age people significantly outgrew working-age people (known as the dependency ratio).

The #coronavirus will cost more than dollars-and-cents . . . it will shorten American lives due to the dramatic decline in the utilization of healthcare (since people are afraid or unable to go to the hospital).

As the #Coronavirus pandemic drags on, we must remember that the virus isn't the only thing that kills.

"If unemployment hits 32 percent, some 77,000 Americans are likely to die from suicide and drug overdoses as a result of layoffs. Deaths of despair."
