Because it’s WRONG, you arrogant Eurocentric prick. A standard American built house would easily last a couple hundred years in Europe because nothing ever fucking happens in Europe. There are American houses that have stood since colonial times, not because of sUpErIoR eUrOpEaN cOnStRuCtIoN but just because they just happened to not be burned, flooded, or blasted apart yet.
Tornadoes which would only take off the roof from European houses
In your dreams. Commercial buildings in the US are typically built more robustly than European homes, and they’re still destroyed down to the foundations. You just have no framework for how massively destructive natural disasters are, because you haven’t had any for a thousand years.
There’s no point building a 400-year home in most of the US. Within a couple of generations, there’s a good chance something will destroy the very ground it’s built on.
I had found a good quote earlier by another American who had actually visited other places, I think now is a good time to share it:
"Americans who have never left their own little reality will tell you that American homes are actually solid… they’re not… I have lived in and visited many countries. American houses are built like shit.
My cousin built a house in Europe out of brick and concrete… and it’s WAY WAY WAY WAY better than the most expensive, nicest house I’ve ever been to in the US. I have anger issues and have punched through my walls on repeated occasions. You can’t do that with brick and concrete… probably a good thing I live in the US.
This is why when a tornado comes around, entire towns are demolished… All that would happen in other countries is some broken windows and shingles would come off the roof.
Americans pay more for their houses in terms of price, property taxes (insanely high), and repairs… to live in the lowest form of construction on this planet second to bamboo huts.
This is all due to American greed. America is a big mall where you get shit quality everywhere you go, but you think you’re actually winning because you are so self-deluded and isolated. Most Americans have never been anywhere else, but yet they will defend their garbage buildings that fall apart in a couple of decades or less. Speaking from my piece of shit house that was built 20 years ago that needs all floors and walls replaced because of mold seeping into the… wood… everything… wood and cardboard. ".
I also don’t get how you came to believe that there are no natural disasters in Europe. We have a stereotype of dumb arrogant Americans who are confidently incorrect, but still, what the hell man :)
Or do you just want to persist in your stupid-ass “Murica bad” Euro bullshit? People like you who insist on European superiority are just as deranged as the MAGA nuts except it’s cuter because Europe’s empires are long gone.
How can you be so convinced of things which are so easily disproven? Why do you not try looking something up instead of just spouting the same nonsense again and again? Why do you resort to insults when it turns out that a belief you held strongly, turns out to have been a delusion? Notice how all this time I’ve been the one providing sources and quotes, while you just resorted to insults and doubling down when what I say doesn’t align with your feelings. You’d look far less like a fool if you would accept that it’s possible to be wrong about something.

Oh yeah? Name a natural disaster then.

Sometimes knowledge is just an internet search away: https://www.qwant.com/?q=natural+disasters+in+europe&t=web
Or searching for specific kinds of disasters will also supply results, like fe tornadoes: https://www.qwant.com/?q=tornado+europe&t=web
