@@rhuephus Correct. Expands when wet, contracts when drying out. In the 70’s the ‘fix’ was to pour a “voided” foundation. This was kind of like pilings or spread footers so that the load was spaced out and concentrated. Theory was, don’t spread the load evenly. Voided foundation are more expensive to pour, requires soil core sampling and an engineer-even for a basic single family residence. Typically, bentonite is in spots not across super large areas. When a builder buys lots from a developer, the developer will discount the lot sale if voided foundations become necessary. Any thinking builder will soil test lots BEFORE buying the lot.

This is a no brainer as soon as it was started. Of course when you pump enough of a liquid out of the ground the ground will eventually settle into the empty space. Whether it be water, oil or fracking fluids. The geologists that were a part of the planning crew were quite well aware of this phenomenon. But they also knew that it would take decades for it to happen, so they succumbed to whatever pressures, (or financial inducements), were put upon them to approve the project. Pretty typical of how our corrupted system works. This is just one of the many ways that the general population is forced to subsidize private business. Sure the government pays for the fix, but where does the government get the money to pay for it. Duh, your tax dollars. What really irks me is how we have to pay for our medical bills when we are afflicted with pollution causing illnesses. Or even worse die from them. The medical system proudly proclaims every new step in fighting cancer. BUT, the best way to reduce cancers by at least 50% is to force the petrochemical industry to stop producing carcinogenic products. Do we see these industries paying our medical bills? Absolutely not. What we do see is our governments subsidizing these industries with hundreds of millions of dollars a year. Then we get told that we have a country that is run by the people for the people. Ya, right. And Santa Claus rides his sleigh every December 24th.

Ground water depletion is a real problem all across the Midwest and desert south west. People are living where they were never intended to live, deserts. The only answer is to remove the homes and stop drawing groundwater. In the Midwest, the problem is using groundwater to grow crops. Large corporate farms have exacerbated the problems. When ground water use depletes an aquifer, it will take decades, if not hundreds of years to replenish it. So for all intents and purposes, once gone, the aquifer is gone for good. Common sense, which seems in short supply, is needed to limit populations in areas to what the water resources can supply. Currently it seems that populations are allowed to grow, and finding adequate water supplies comes next. Insanity for sure, as places like Las Vegas are in a freakin desert!

You deserve help. A dwelling in a stable area is as far as it should go. Most of us in the real world are just plain F'd though when things aren't right. Money given to every pork garbage project while people like this could use the assistance until back to normal.

"deserve" People don't know what that word means anymore. You are essentially saying these people have somehow earned the right to enslave productive citizens who pay taxes. So, what did they do to earn the right to enslave productive citizens who pay taxes? I bet you can't answer the question. I bet you do everything except answer the question.

That's what happens when you remove something from under the ground without letting it replenish. Remove water, then the air left won't have enough pressure to sustain much weight.

They’ve been pulling water out of the ground for decades, thus the homes sink. There’s a limit to the groundwater.

Brand new houses lack appliances, roofing materials, garage doors, etc. etc. Plus - many have mold and are sinking.
