Buildings in the impoverished red states have been falling down for decades 
because rightists run third world states where construction companies skimp 
on materials and build shit because rightists are greedy, inferior and lazy.

Rightists certainly are like illegal aliens except for the better work ethic 
possessed by the illegals.


On June 24, 2021, at approximately 1:22 a.m. EDT,[a] Champlain Towers South, 
a 12-story beachfront condominium in the Miami suburb of Surfside, Florida, 
United States, partially collapsed, causing the deaths of 98 people. Four 
people were rescued from the rubble, but one died of injuries shortly after 
arriving at the hospital.[9] Eleven others were injured.[10] Approximately 
thirty-five were rescued the same day from the un-collapsed portion of the 
building,[11] which was demolished ten days later.

A contributing factor under investigation is long-term degradation of 
reinforced concrete structural support in the basement-level parking garage 
under the pool deck, due to water penetration and corrosion of the 
reinforcing steel. The problems had been reported in 2018 and noted as "much 
worse" in April 2021. A $15 million program of remedial works had been 
approved before the collapse, but the main structural work had not started. 
Other possible factors include land subsidence, insufficient reinforcing 
steel, and corruption during construction.[12][13][14] The National Institute 
of Standards and Technology (NIST) is investigating almost two dozen 
potential causes for the collapse. It is likely they will determine several 
factors happened simultaneously to cause the collapse.[15]

The Surfside collapse is tied with the Knickerbocker Theatre collapse as the 
third-deadliest non-deliberate structural engineering failure in United 
States history, behind the Hyatt Regency walkway collapse and the collapse of 
the Pemberton Mill.[16]
