Victims Compensation
I just familiarized myself with this issue after watching Mr. Feinberg's
appearance on The News Hour. I am extremely disturbed and saddened by the
approach taken to compensate victims . The obvious intent is to limit
lawsuits and protect the Airline Industry . In the process the taxpayers are
once again victimized by the cornacopian view of Federal dollars. Dangerous
precedents are being set .
The government has suddenly become the insurer of
lives , lifting the personnal responsibility we all bear to provide for our
families if we die. If this were the intent all responsible people could save
plenty of money by discontinuing preniums . Mr. Feinberg trys to sell his
position by siding with the victims and saying greed isn't at work I
certainly don't feel any concerns for the Nation comming from those that are
cpmplaining . What was driving the spokesman lawyer tonight when he
concluded with his case for $2.7MM for losing his wife .
Give me a break .
Why would the possibility of someone receiving millions of dollars even
exist? Finally , what will be the bill to the taxpayer if the terrorists are
successful in killing 100,000 citizens (God Forbid but we can sense the
possibility ). This compensation plan is insanity . Thanks for listening
