To make matters worse, for the Australian people, by the government
importing too many bank slaves into the colony to allegedly boost the
economy, the Australian people are faced with another crisis that is
deliberately not talked about by the mainstream media, and that is
another aspect of the low quality homes that are being built today.
Low quality farmed
timber.
Newer isn’t always better, and this picture sums it up pretty well.
The quality of modern lumber is simply far inferior to the quality of
lumber they were using to build homes in the early and mid-20th
century. Wood quality began dropping on a serious scale in the 1980s
due to old-growth timber being almost completely depleted.
Most wood used today
is grown very fast – not only can you visibly see the difference in
quality, but the newer lumber is more prone to rotting due to a lack
of heartwood.
Slow growth wood yields much more heartwood, which is
the longest lasting part of the tree, whereas sap wood (new growth
wood) will rot very quickly.
Modern lumber is also a lot more prone
to termite damage as it is softer and easier to consume whereas old
lumber is extremely resinous and naturally termite resistant.
A good
rule – as long as the plumbing and electric has been updated, a
well-built home from the mid-20th century is a better investment and
will likely outlast a newer build.
Clarification: Yes,
these two pieces of lumber come from two different trees.
The expert
in the attached article is not comparing the lumber of the same tree
over time. He is comparing the lumber that was commonly used to build
houses 75 years ago versus the lumber commonly used to build houses
today
