RE: COMMENTS REGARDING SUBTRACTIONS for the Victims
Dear Sir or Mam,
I for one am totally appalled with the fund for SUBTRACTING
any life insurance or pension benefits from anyone who was
injured or killed during the Attack.
You totally screw any family who planned for their future.
I thank God did not lose any friends, acquaintances, or
family members in this attack, but I feel totally angered at
these subtractions for those families who did.
It seems to me it is the governments' cop-out in the failure
to protect our citizens from terrorists in the first place.
And to further compound the terror, you mess with their
future. You want to be fair, or so you say, BUT if that is
true then how on earth could you take away and devalue their
life or lives the way you are doing?
I feel that if the FBI and CIA had been paying attention
instead of sitting on their laurels this type of attack
wouldn't have been able to take place in the first place.
You don't want to be sued or the airlines sued so you
cheapskate your way out by such a paltry funding and expect
the grieving families to be happy with all these take a
ways.
I wonder....Is the government so callous, hardened, and
uncaring, that if it were each of your family members being
screwed by these subtractions, would you be so quick to
implement them? You all by rote, spiel out all the words of
being upset by these actions, yet you crucify a family for
having pensions or life insurance... How is that fair??
