I am really unclear as to your calculations. Mr. Fienberg told a large group of us at a victim's meeting how these figures would be computed. We were told that the person would be paid their salary until they reached the national retirement age of 62-65. There fore a single 35 year old, making $80,000 a year should receive min $2,160,000.00 in Economic loss PLUS the $250,000 flat Non-Economic loss figure EQUALS $2,410,000.00 Before any other compensation source is deducted. Mr. Fienberg's compensation table has the total Economic and Non Economic compensation at $980,351.00 before any other deductions. That is a huge discrepancy and I am unclear as to why there is a such a difference in our numbers. If those are the numbers that Washington is getting on their calculators, I am beginning to see our country's financial problems explained. Please explain your math to us Mr. Fienberg.
