Heaven forbid life expectancy factors be TWO things!

Obviously easy access to healthcare AND a non corn syrup based diet are important factors in determining longevity.

Edit: Does anyone know what this category of logical fallacy is called? Basically the fallacy where a person incorrectly tries to attribute an outcome to a single cause.

It is not two things, it is several things. Life expectancy in the US is lower mainly because of one thing though.
