Miami Beach condo collapse
My initial suspicion would be underground sinkholes instead. These massive sinkholes happen so often that I imagined one day it'd occure underneath a building instead of a road/parking lot. If so, the responsibility is mostly on the local government's lack of infrastructure maintenance funding.
Pasco depression continues to grow and threatens business
I'm waiting for the outbreak of sinkholes in the central valley, California. They've pumped so much water from the aquifers for farming that the entire valley is now sinking. It can't be long before sinkholes are a major problem there too, but there it will be a man made problem, not a natural one.

It is interesting to watch - in a dispassionate way - how things are changing generally on the web. Youtube is becoming "the Internet of video" but independent web operators are diminishing. The vast attention sinkhole of of Facebook is just growing and growing.

Earthquake Liquefaction Example
For those who are wondering of the actual effects that this causes in a earthquake. Water and Sand get forced up. After the last big quake in christchurch the water was upto my knees in about 2minutes. Thick sand/water mix covered everything. Pipes below the ground were often forced up and out, and houses sunk into the ground. Sinkholes, uneven ground, damages roads and footpaths. Its a pretty nasty effect.... and thats without the quakes force alone.

Bus Sucked Into Sinkhole
Sinkhole? More likely a road eroded by a river which was flowing under it and things went bad, because to much water or something like that. Awesome all the same.
Last Week Tonight with John Oliver: Infrastructure (HBO)
loved the cameos.
My pessimistic side says that no funding will materialize, and only the "it's going to break next week" bridges and dams will get a band-aid emergency repair, over and over, until they eventually collapse or close.
I've seen a road that got a giant sinkhole, and rather than fix it, they put up a few concrete barriers and 2 stop signs, basically making it 1 lane at the part where the sinkhole is.
I've seen bridges that were closed for years because they were deemed unsafe.
Another problem is that road materials exist that will last 8 x longer than asphalt, but they cost 2 x more. These were proposed, but guess what? The highway works union lobbied against them because it would mean fewer jobs for them.
