Mud Huts??, hmmm your retarded parents definetly dropped you on your head. Have you even read the news, properly...or do you just look at the points and just come and spread your shitty views on the boards. The earthquake happened on a 2000 year old area, Iranians compared to americans want to keep their ancient heritage intact and preserve it, it is not the governments or even the peoples fault. Please don't come here and think you know what your talking about dickhead.
Have you even seen the other parts of Iran before commenting about mud huts or some shit? ahhh i don't think so, your ignorance has spoken.
wow, no surprise there, you follow in his retard tradition.
and to say that Iran could have done more, what about 9/11, couldn't America do more for that...maybe build better buldings
rather than mourn about the people who are dead and the families who are grieving, you come here and practically say that Iran deserved it because they didn't do alot...pfft, ignorance. |
why do you have to insult. does it make you feel more powerful badmouthing someone over a message board where he cant kick your ass? your parents must not have taught you any manners. you should work on your manners and not make fun of people, beside, this is an online message board, do you think it hurts his feelings when you call him or his parents retarded?

Building code designs don't necessitate that houses survive hurricane force conditions. To do so would be a far too costly and impractical to put in motion. For one, who would be able to afford to live in Florida? You would immediately exclude the poor who would not be able to build all their houses out of concrete or what not. Second of all, given the unpredictable path of the hurricane, infrequency of strikes, redevelopment of new homes/communities, etc., and doing a cost/benefit analysis, yields far greater costs than benefits. So where is the risk factor of hurricanes taken into account? Insurance ... your housing insurance rates are probably a lot higher than other regions. You then balance out the high costs of your premiums over years of inactivity for when a hurricane does happen to hit. All your premiums are then paid out to those who are actually effected by the disaster. It's a far more efficient system than hurricane proofing every single house and home imo. I wouldn't even know how you would go about doing such a thing. HOwever, there likely are building codes that would LIMIT the amount of damage a periphary hurricane can cause to a structure that passes the cost/benefit analysis test.
