To Whom In May Concern,

I am personally embarrassed and offended by the greed being exhibited by some of the victims of September 11. I do not feel it is the governments place to try to make everyone feel better about their plight. What make s the survivors any different from those who lose a loved one on the way to work any other day by any other means? What sort of precedent will this set?

If the effort is one to stop law suites against the airlines of FAA, it ought to be told to the victims the result of said lawsuits. The result would be either fewer airlines willing to fly, or airlines requiring VERY stringent security measures before entering an airport. How would they react to everyone being subjected to a strip search in order to get on an airplane? Would that not be a reasonable response by the airlines still willing to fly? If not, they'll just tell the victims to get wherever they want by other means, and what would they say.

In any case, I want it known that I object to my tax dollars being used to compensate people that did not plan ahead. We ALL should have adequate life insurance, accident insurance, mortgage protection etc. For those of us who DO plan ahead for our families, bravo. For those who do not, shame on you. Your left behind loved ones are the ones who will suffer. Let's hope they al;l have good support networks, family, friends, churches, to take care of them. I do NOT wane my tax dollars used.
