I LOST TWO SONS ON 9-11-01! I STRONGLY URGE THE ELIMINATION OF THE COLLATERAL SOURCE CLAUSE, IT IS WRONG TO PENALIZE FAMILIES FOR TRYING TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR FAMILY RESPONSIBLY. SECURITY FOR YOUR LOVED ONES IS IMPORTANT + WE SHOULD NOT BE PUNISHED FOR IT. TO ASK PEOPLE TO SIGN AWAY THEIR RIGHT WITHOUT KNOWING WHAT TO EXPECT IS UNAMERICAN & GOES AGAINST EVERYTHING OUR GOVERNMENT STANDS FOR OUR GOVERNMENT SHOULD TAKE CARE OF THEIR OWN PEOPLE BOTH CIVILIAN + UNIFORMED SERVICE PEOPLE WHO WERE ALL INNOCENT VICTIMS IN THIS EVIL + TRAGIC EVENT IN HISTORY! PARENTS, SIBLINGS + DOMESTIC PARTNERS SHOULDN'T BE EXCLUDED FROM THIS COMPENSATION PROGRAM! MOST OF US WERE DEPENDENT ON OUR LOST LOVED ONES. FOR OUR GOVERNMENT TO ASK US TO FINANCIAL LOSS + PAIN + SUFFERING WHEN IT IS NOT NECESSARILY UNCONSCIONABLE. THE FORMULA FOR COMPENSATION ALSO NEEDS TO BE UPDATED FROM IT'S OUTDATED STANDARDS! WE WERE VICTIMIZED ON 9-11-01 DON'T VICTIMIZE US AGAIN!
