Well lets throw billions more to all the disaster agencies so the money will never reach the people that needed. Some will make bank.

I imagine the last one took out most of the old, weaker buildings.

Same. I wonder if they mandated stricter building codes there after the last one.
You have to actually be building things for stricter building codes to matter. Haiti barely has money to survive. They don't even have trees on their part of the island anymore.

It did hundreds of dollars in damage.

At this rate, it may flip over any day now. Or was that Guam?

In unrelated news, Hillary and Bill Clinton announce an unexpected windfall of potential future funding for their FWUC.

Are some of those replies on Twitter actually seriously blaming climate change for a freaking earthquake?

Are those pictures the before or the after photos?

Probably did at least a couple thousand dollars in improvements.

This could be a legit question. How much recovery was actually made since the last one? I kind of doubt more than 50% of the donations made it to the street level there.
