As a worker who lost my job as a direct result of September 11, I am sickened
that my tax dollars are going to make victims of the terrorist attacks all
millionaires, while I can't even pay my rent. Right after the attacks, I, as
well as millions of others, gave money to funds to help the families of
victims, and from what I understand there are millions of dollars in
charitable funds to help these people. What is the point of the government
being in the charity business for this one act? And from what I understand,
many of the greedy families are complaining that they're not getting enough;
that their insurance, etc, cuts in on their windfall! What is this, the
lottery?
