South Carolina Flooding, "We have lost everything"
This article is about the flood that has recently come over South Carolina. The Mayor Steve Benjamin said that he believes the rains will stop soon but the damage will be so much more than they could ever expect. South Carolina anticipates the damages will cost billions of dollars to fix/ clean/ replace everything. He hopes that everything will workout and will hope for the best.
Analysis: This is a very tragic occurrence. Not only have many families lost their homes and everything they own but people have lost their own lives and have lost families. This is such a terrible thing to happen, but it is something we cannot stop. I wish the best for the families and they will be in my thoughts. This relates back to all kids of history especially a few years ago during Hurricane Katrina that destroyed New Orleans and killed and ruined thousands of peoples lives. i know that South Carolina and the rest of the country will come together just like in previous years and help them get through this hard time.

This is really upsetting to know that these kinda of mass flooding are still occurring, many of which do not even receive national news attention. I do hope your right that the outcome of this flooding will be as uplifting as Hurricane Katrina, but I cannot say that is true with all events similar to this.
