When a major disaster happens, as in this case the earthquake in Turkey and Syria, it is suddenly discovered that the construction market has not followed the rules. Is it really necessary for people to die needlessly, just because the authorities have no control while there are brilliant times. The age of corruption does not last forever.
The latest news from Turkey is that over 1000 construction contractors have been arrested, as responsible for this earthquake disaster that claimed over 30,000 lives! But how many thousands of state and municipal employees have filled their pockets with received bribes in the last 20 years? Are these people ever charged? No, most certainly not!
Unfortunately, this is something that happens all over the world, areas of land are built on where, according to the experts, it should not be allowed. There are examples of tropical islands where it is known that a weather disaster can be devastating, or stretches of coastline in countries that live on tourism, which despite obvious risk are built for financial gain.
I could go on with tons of examples, but I think my readers understand where I want to go, and leave you the freedom to think for yourself.
I have nothing against evolution and expansion, but it should be done according to all the rules, so that people go first before greed!
We cannot continue to blame everything on climate change all the time, this has been happening for the past thousands or millions of years without humanity stopping it.
