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. Monday, December 24, 2001 7:05 PM Victim Compensation I don't want to sound unsympathetic, but I don't understand why taxpayer money is paying off the victims of Sept 11. We don't owe fellow Americans anything for an untimely death. When did we become responsible for the financial well being of any victim? Where do we draw the line? Do we pay for regular murder victims? Do we pay for traffic victims? I think not. Each person is responsible for their own financial planning to take care of their loved ones, as it should be. What happened to all the money that was raised for the victims? Why isn't it being used? I was taken aback when I heard one of the victim's relatives indicate that they didn't think the payout was fair. This relative thought they were getting less than they deserved. How greedy can a person be!!! I also expect the victims of the USS Cole, embassies, and Oklahoma to now come forth wanting their compensation package. The bottom line is no amount of money can replace a loved one. Use the money that has been raised to pay the victim's families. Don't use my tax money!!!
