the Carlyle Bay Hotel $1800/nt will still be standing. The shanty town behind it won't. That's the inequality point...

That is an outcome of the hurricane. The inequality doesn't CAUSE the hurricane. Poor countries are usually poor cos corrupt, bad Govts.
-
Strong democracy and free market capitalism (not nepotism and corruption) are the solutions. Nothing to do with inequality.
-
So the solution to hurricane-force winds then is strong democracy and capitalism?
-
No, the solution to poverty
-
Good democracy, yes (you might mean something else by strong democracy... not sure.) Capitalism by itself... no. Only as a part of the mix.

No, he said hurricanes caused by inequality. That article says hurricanes cause more poverty. Not the same thing at all.
-
He said the impact of hurricanes is caused by inequality due to countries/people being unable to afford to take hurricane resistant actions.
-
That sounds much more like what someone might actually say if they were making a link between disasters, povery and inequality, rather..1/
-
/2 "hurricanes caused by inequality" as JHB purports.

In my experience as a British man, there is a lot of hot air and wind caused by remoaners! Perhaps they at fault for hurricane?

What if things can have... wait for it.... ....more than one factor determining their outcome??
-
What if society had been structured for years so that those w less $ live in places more vulnerable and exposed to extreme weather?
-
What if people with means were able leave the danger zone with most of their possessions, what if they have insurance? These things mitigate
-
What if social inequality PLUS a hurricane will harm tons of poor people while jags like you ignore structural issues and blame the wind?
-
What if you, by insisting that everyone will be equally affected when they won't, are actually perpetuating the inequality that kills people
-
What if your stubborn denial to recognize the reality of this situation is serving a narrative that will continue to allow this to happen?
-
In short, you're an opportunist who's deliberately ignoring nuance to prove a point that further insulates your worldview. Lazy and cruel.
