VICTIMS FUND

I do not think the govt.should be doing this when the public has already
given so much to the different charities.  Those who died on the job will
have Workman's Comp coming in the picture and Social Security survivor
benefits for surviving children and widows.  In other words, there are
already programs in effect to take care of these families.  
No such govt. program came into existence when the Oklahoma City Federal
Bldg was bombed so I am unclear as to why it is felt that there should now
be a program for this tragedy.
With the govt programs already in place and with the extra over one billion
sent in to the different charities, I do not see why another program should
come into the picture.
If it is present, then definitely the other program monies given out should
be considered before anymore government money is paid. Taxpayers have paid
enough into the different govt. funds and again in their charitable
contributions.
Thank you for giving the public the right to respond.
