Saving Construction Costs

Next door, in India in the last weekend of June, there were two building collapses that killed at least twenty-two people. The Toronto Star news reporter said, " Most homes in that part of the capital (New Delhi) were built without permission using substandard materials." Building collapses are common in India because lax regulations and enforcement encourage builders to cut corners, add unauthorized floors, and use poor materials to save construction costs and increase profits. This will not end while the profit system is in place and until the workers end it. John Ayers.
