It depends on how much in the past. Pre birth control? Pre retirement funds? Pre free hospitals? That all impacts things.


Absolutely, yes. There's lots of factors, and any answer that just says "Because this one reason obviously", without giving arguments and statistics showing why it's that and not something else, is worthless.
