Seriously though, go to many 3rd world countries, and most don't own televisions or cars and they die decades shorter.
True, but those who die early are probably doing so as a result of malnutrition, infectious diseases, etc. and not of heart attacks. Living in a society where few die of heart disease isn't necessarily a good thing.
