Live Fast, Die Dumb
written 21 Aug 2009 while the sun tried, at least, rising
The following chart outlines deaths in the USA by various, preventable means. Note that I am in no way encouraging readers to quit smoking, stop drinking, or anything else. Live fast, die dumb, people, and I live by that.
| Cause | Effect (US deaths per year) |
|---|---|
| Smoking | 440,000 |
| Alcohol | 75,000 |
| Auto Accidents | 42,000 |
| Guns | 29,500 |
| Marijuana | 0 |
All quiet on the frontier...
