Eine höhere Beitragsbemessungsgrenze soll die Finanzen der Gesetzlichen Krankenversicherung (GKV) nachhaltig stabilisieren. Begründet wird dies unter anderem mit einer gerechteren Verteilung der Beitragslast. Das gelänge auch bei einem entsprechend niedrigeren Beitragssatz.

Individuals who are socioeconomically disadvantaged are at increased risk for aging-related diseases and perform less well on tests of cognitive function. The weathering hypothesis proposes that these disparities in physical and cognitive health arise from an acceleration of biological processes of aging. Theories of how life adversity is biologically embedded identify epigenetic alterations, including ...
