Title A name given to the resource Department of Justice Emails Description An account of the resource The Department of Justice received more than 11,000 e-mails in response to the agency's public solicitation for comments upon its plans to distribute the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund of 2001 established by Congress to benefit the victims of September 11 and their families. These e-mails have been organized here by date. September 11 Email September 11 Email: Body The basic content, as unstructured text; sometimes containing a signature block at the end. Tuesday, January 22, 2002 7:16 PM comments I do NOT believe that any September 11 victim or victim's family is "entitled" to any compensation from taxpayers. Anything that the government chooses to give them must be looked upon as a "gift" from the citizens of the USA. There are a lot of people within our country who have had loved ones to die because of an accident, a crime, or for our country such as our military people. Does the government want to also compensate those families? While my heart goes out to the families of the victims of the terrorist act on our country, they must understand that the American tax dollars of millions cannot be given out to everyone who suffers from life's tragedies. The people of the United States gave over a billion dollar to charities and I think what the government is offering is more than enough to monetarily compensate them. We all suffer tragedies in our lives. If they have complaints about what is being offered and they aren't being allowed to sue the airlines, then please ask them to take it up with their congressmen. I will be glad to tell my congressmen what I feel they should do with my tax dollars. Thanks for asking for our opinions!
