Protest to the proposed regulations for the Victims'
Compensation Fund
I am writing this to protest the proposed regulations for the Victims' Compensation Fund. The settlement is inadequate in all regards. It is minimal in economic damage and heartless in compassion for the extraordinary pain and suffering and loss of companionship the 9-11 WTC destruction caused. Rather than being a Solomon, the Special Master is more like a Judas Iscariot selling out to the interests of the Airlines. The reason there are such gross disparities in the projected settlements is that the proposed regulations include so little compensation for loss of human life! It is instructive to realize that Bill Gates is worth more than 180 thousand human beings using the Master's logic. There are no provisions for extended families and loss of non-remunerative services. I will take the option of trying my case in court , thank you.
