I would love you to show me where I said that's the only difference.

They also have a sense of community. Americans will fuck over anyone for a slight advantage.

They also are physically active, unlike Americans eating 3k calories and sitting on their asses all day.

There are actually many places on Earth that are just like Okinawa in that they have long lives. I think that's evidence enough that genetics are not a big factor. They are not some sort of superhumans, They just live a better life.

Go ahead and defend how Americans live.... We are insatiable pigs, on a whole. Nearly half of us are overweight because we can't control ourselves. We have no meaningful culture. We have no sense of community. We are individualistic to the core. And we die before we hit the age 80. But yeah America's number one right?
