Monday, January 07, 2002 12:03 AM comment I think this is disgusting. How do you put a price on someone's life? This isn't the only place these people should have been receiving compensation. I know for a fact that other countries have been raising money for relief for these victims and their families. Case in point. A school in Manchester, England had a bake sale for the victims and families and what about all the commercials to send money here and there and everywhere to help these families? It is a tragedy that this happened but mothers, fathers and family members die everyday. My father died when I was four years of age. My friends husband left her and two children under 5 when he died. Both were senseless deaths and my mother was left to raise four children on social security and my friend to raise two on social security. There were no scholarships for us or lump sums or fund-raisers and the deaths were no less traumatic on the families. The only difference was my Father died alone on a mountain doing a job and my friends husband died coming home from his job instead of a sensational crime that we all could cash in on. After this tragedy I was proud to say I am a American raised with the value this country was built on that hard work pays off not a handout. Now I see we have reduced ourselves back to the world's view of us as a money grubbing country out to make a quick buck.
