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 6:27 PM (no subject) This is in response to the Victim's Compensation Fund that the U.S. Government set up for the victim's families. With all the donations that were received for the victim's of this terrible tragedy, we do not understand why the government has to use our tax dollars to pay the victim's families more money. With all the charity funds and the insurance dollars, why should the government give these people more money? We do not understand this!! If the government is feeling responsible for this, why not for the Oklahoma City bombing? Those poor people didn't receive a dime from the government and yet the person that committed that awful crime was a U.S. citizen. What about the poor guy that we know who was just working and fell off the roof and it killed him? Why doesn't the government help his family who doesn't have any insurance coverage? And why should the government bail out insurance companies? Isn't that what we pay insurance premiums for? So the insurance company can provide us coverage in the event of a disaster? If the money isn't there, it is only because the "fat cats" at the top have taken the money that we have paid and put it in their pockets!!! Just like Enron.......that fat cats got fatter and the poor employees were left high and dry. We suppose the government is going to pay them something too!! (Which we don't agree with either, even though we feel sorry for them!). The government should make sure the fat cats pay the employees!! We hope that this gets through and is read by someone and not just dismissed.
