Rates dropped or held steady for all the leading causes of death with the exception of suicide, which reached its highest point in 25 years.
The number of suicides has been increasing since 2000 and 'it's really hard to say why,' said Robert Anderson, who oversees the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention branch that issued the report on Wednesday.

Thinning out the weak is never a bad thing.
it is not that hard to figure out why! The economy sucks - wall street sucks - the HEALTH CARE sucks - the real estate market sucks! Cost of living s going higher and higher each day, but the income is not! Depression kicks in and people see it as the only way out! Thank you to our Government!
2:48 = ignorant jerk
People have lost their homes, their savings, their health and their HOPE!
Your insensitive comment is sickening.
