Tuesday, November 06, 2001 5:23 PM September 11 Victim Compensation Fund Dear Attorney General Ashcroft and DOJ Staff, Thank you for the opportunity to submit comments on the rules for the September 11 Victim Compensation Fund. I am very concerned that this fund does not seem to have any caps for the maximum dollar amount per victim or for the total fund. I believe that such caps are necessary to keep the fund within reasonable limits. Most Americans support offering some help to the victims of the September 11 terrorist attacks. However, these victims do not deserve a blank checkbook! We do not offer unlimited compensation to victims of natural disasters, or even to the families of our dead veterans or to families of winners of the Congressional Medal of Honor. I also believe that the fund should not compensate victims for expenses that have already been covered by insurance or by private charities. This kind of policy discourages people from buying insurance or giving to charity.
