Nobody Is To Blame. Its A Natural Disaster.

I think the French Revolution is responsible for the level of destruction in Haiti two years ago.During the French Revolution,slaves burned and destroyed the plantations that they work were forced to work in. My inference is that people at Haiti only earn $450 income yearly because their plantation had been destroyed during the revolution and since their yearly income is so low,they don't have enough money to build firm houses that can withstand the earthquake.

I don't think it would ever happen in the U.S.

I think the french revloution and everything else is responsible for the persishous earthquake that happend in hati and i think the same exact thing will happen to the use because we dont know as much as we give off about this earth and what happens after we die

I think Christopher Columbia is responsible for the level of destruction that is happen in Haiti. My reason why i say this is because if Christopher didn't think bout slaves this whole thing wouldn't have happen in the first place. Everybody wouldn't have have been miss up into different part of the world and their would be less problem for people to deal with. My other reason if why when i they see Christopher Columbia doing all these thing why didn't he put stop to him but instead he allow for this thing to going and from that process people were mistreated in the way they not suppose to be treating. From that process people were in the wrong place that they don't know about. Now earthquake destroyed their land and approximately 230.000 people dead from the earthquake, home were destroyed and many were wounded from the disaster. They were confused, scare, don't have no where to go or live less job lees food poor quantity of water.
clearly these are my reason why I say Christopher Columbia is responsible for everything that is happen to the people of Haiti.

The blame can go to everyone for the earthquake in haiti.I blame the people who costructed the buildings because the way they had built it is what made so many people die.Earthquakes are a nautral disater but to have that many people die is rediculous.I blame the mayor because he knew about the buildings and did nothing.I blame all country's because a dister sholud not have to happen to help realize other country's need help.I belive the earthquake in haiti was a wake up call that country's are struggling and they need help.

Yes i think this could happen in the U.S.A because disater can happen at any time.

I think the French Revolution and the people who built the buildings are responsible for the destruction of Haiti.I do and don't think this could happen in the United States.I don't think this could happen in the United States because our buildings are built strong.I do think this could happen in the United states because nobody can control nature or natural diasters.

I think the people that made the homes are to blame for such a massive turn out of the earth quake. I blame them because they should have tried to build all different types of homes. Instead they built fragile homes that caused most of the deaths. Also I blame them again because knowing that houses cannot be built so thin. You have too add layers too a home so that it could be more safe.

markeeda said...

I dont think that could happen in the united states because we are more aware of the things thats happening in the world and we took caution with making our homes, and buildings. But you could never be too sure because alot of stuff could happen and you would not imagine it happening.

I think that Nobody is the blame its a natural disaster.
To be honest I do think an eathquake can hit but I honestly think that it would be as bad although we not wealthly in the USAbut we are more forchanit then HAITI. And I dont think it would be as bad do to the fact are buildings and houses are made of a better structor.

who do i think is responsible for the destruction in Haiti well forreal forreal i think they are responsible for the own destruction that happen really because of the way they bill there what we now call foundation there houses the houses are to close to each and other wen that happen i really felt sorry and hart broken for them if i have a way of taking back what happen to them i really will and by the way no i dont think that will happen in the U>S>A maybe some part but not all over like it did to Haiti.

Miya said...

who do i think is responsible?? i think that what ever happend back then is the cause because when the slaves started to fight back they destroyed their plantation. so today people only make $450 a year they cant make houses that can stand strong during the earthquake plus when the build their house they build them on bad foundation so that make the house not steady.


i dont think this can happen in the u.s

I don't think it would ever happen in the U.S.
one reason cause they are stable with good building. 2nd the new world acquis the most richest in the world, they use people to built their country they enslave them treat as animals and use their richest. Haiti was an useless country abandoned by Napoleon after the crime of Toussaint L'Ouverture comitted there was nothing to exploit again so the poverty began...

I believe the people who have built these homes are very responsible because they should have put work nd effort into those type of things because it has to do with people lives and they also know that haiti is apart of the world that can have major earthquakes.I also believe this will not happen in the u.s. because we are less likely to get a very sever earthquake also we are aware of these types of things.But things can happen.
