Forums - General Discussion - Hurricane Matthew killed 1000+ people in Haiti

Like Haiti needed more bad luck. Damn that is rough.

RIP. It seemed like Haiti took most of the force along with other nations/islands before the storm finally reached the US. 



That is a frightening figure. Just for a bit of perspective, If I'm not mistaken, hurricanes cause an average of 45 casualties per year, that's usually from various hurricanes. Katrina was one of the exceptions with 1000+ deaths by itself, just like Mathew. That's earthquake territory. Sadly, Haiti was also victim to the deadliest earthquake on record with 316,000 deaths. That happened very recent, on January 2010.

I don't get something, but i may not know well the problem of haiti,

But would this is a bad idea to build very solid house one time ? look like they build again and again after every hurricane shitty house and get destroyed again....

Anyways best wish to all ppl there and hope everthing will become good again.

I think the problem is they can't afford to build good houses. We'd give them money but then the government would take it and use it for something other than building good houses. I would say this is unique amongst Haitians, but in America, we keep electing and re-electing Democrats and Republicans no matter how badly they screw up. I guess that's human nature though.
