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. Friday, March 01, 2002 11:10 AM A flawed survey The vote.com news flashes, which appear as "comments on the Interim Final Rule", reflect the distortion advanced by the Special Master. While the caption listed in the comments is DOES THE GOVERNMENT'S AID PROGRAM FOR FAMILIES OF SEPT. 11 VICTIMS GO FAR ENOUGH" The real question posed is: isn't $1.65 Million enough? "The families will get an average of $1.65 million each to help them rebuild their lives" is the caption of the 'yes' vote, but of course 'get' is not defined and it depends what your definition of 'get' is. It is all the same remarkable that some souls actually voted for "After all the loss, pain and suffering, the amount to be given is ludicrous" $1.65 million that is. If only the lie were the truth. The math is simple. The Airline Bailout Law gives the government the right to recover $6 billion from the airlines' insurance, hence the $6 billion "budget for the program," However, as Feinberg is an overachiever it appears that the net outlay from the Fund will be closer to $1.5 to 2 billion for the 3000 victims families. Go do the math.
