Good morning Director Zwick !
I believe it is obvious that the hearts of most Americans, have been deeply touched by the Terrorist attack of 9-11.
It is apparent that ten's of thousands of American's have given to numerous funds, in support of those that have been touched personally by this tragedy.
It does grieve my Heart thought, to see the discord that has and is being viewed in the news, from those that are not satisfied with the help, that they are getting from both the Govt. and the private sector.
It is also apparent from the frivolous law suits, the Enron scandal and outrageous salaries of this day, that man / woman is greedy and lacks a spirit of being grateful.
I doubt seriously that many of these individuals will be satisfied with whatever the commission decides to do.
My suggestion would be to set up a program similar to Social Security, where- as an equal amount would be paid out to these individuals on a monthly basis. The individual would be given this option or a lump sum payment that they can invest or spend as they wish.
I am sure that the range of salaries of those working in the Twin Tower's buildings, ranges vastly from low to outrageous. With such a spread, it will be impossible to please everyone.
The prudent individual plans not only for difficult times but also death And so most of these individuals should have fairly decent amounts of monies coming in from Ins. etc. As for Soc. Sec., I don't believe these individuals should be treated any different than any other individual that has lost a loved one. To tread these or other's different would be a slap in the face of anyone that has lost a loved one.
As for the price of a life, God answered that in sending His Son to the cross in payment for man's sinful condition. As for man's view concerning the price of a life, since 1972 we have murdered 68,000,000 babies in their mothers wombs. Between those two, ones view concerning life ,varies as much as from night to day.
Our Prayers are with you and those that are making these difficult decisions as one needs the wisdom of Solomon, in many of these decisions.
Best Wishes !
