The house is bult on a sinking sand. All external manifestations of systemic breakdown are merely symptoms, visible evidence of an internal collapse that precedes and produces the visible chaos. The collapsed bridge is a symptom of compromised engineering standards, which itself is a symptom of institutional corruption, which itself is a symptom of individuals whose internal moral and spiritual systems have failed. The chain of causation always leads back to the construct or deconstruct of the human heart.
