I doubt it's stress. It likely has more to do with adequate funding.
For all its faults, the healthcare system and its funding in the US does not explain the life expectancy numbers. Consider that Hispanic migrants are among the longest lived residents of the US. If you look at the data, you'll see the damage is done before people come in contact with the healthcare system.
- The U.S. has vastly higher rates of firearm-related homicides and suicides, motor vehicle accidents, and accidental drug overdoses.
- The U.S. suffers from higher rates of obesity, Type 2 diabetes, and early-onset cardiovascular disease. This is driven by systemic factors like the American built environment (car-centric, less daily walking) and highly processed dietary patterns.

George Washington lamented that a handful of trained soldiers would run circles around his best militia men.
Sure, that's why Britian [sic] won the revolutionary war.
Actually, it was French help that swung the war. The insurgents were not so good back then.
But look at Afghanistan or Iraq. Those soldiers were a poorly trained and organised rabble. Yet they still defeated a professional US army. Its not always about the quality of the troops.

I credit most of SpaceX's success to CEO Gwen Shotwell.
Isn't that kind of childish? In the real world, there isn't a neat division between heroes and villains.
People you don't like can be successful. Yes, SpaceX success totally depended on Gwen for people skills, but also on Elon. Acknowledging that doesn't mean you have to be a fan. It just means you are a grown-up.
