Thank you, Jeff! We need some optimism these days, right??!

Super interesting paper! All else equal, people do think it's unfair women do more household. But, this doesn't hold if someone earns less (even w/ the same work hours). But most women earn less--in part due to labor force discrimination, and, in part due to unequal division of household labor!

Thanks for that excellent summary!

Thank you! Will do.

Bar chart showing excess mortality of Americans aged 25-44, in 2011-2023, broken into causes of death. The chart shows a big growth over time, especially from drug deaths, "other natural causes," and transport-related deaths (car collisions), as well as from Covid-19 in 2021.

Line graph showing the relative (proportional) excess mortality of Americans aged 25-44, in 2011-2023, broken into causes of death. The graph shows big growth in "other natural causes," transport deaths (car collisions), alcohol-related deaths, and homicide.

New today:

Death rates for Americans aged 25-44 have been rising since 2010. Their mortality is now 70% higher than it would be had pre-2011 mortality declines continued.
