How else do you keep our economy going if you are not rebuilding stuff.

Brick house get trashed as well, now concrete may hold up, then you have the issue the Europe and other palaces have, it a bitch to modify the home later as things change.

On the one hand, it is clear that a good climate allows you to do so. But on the other hand, in these places there are hurricanes and these hurricanes often destroy houses.
Why not build a normal house: made of brick, concrete, aerated concrete and so on?
