Wednesday, November 28, 2001 2:47 PM Inclusion I don't know a lot about law but I know what I think is fair. It seems to me that to be fair all prejudices must be put aside, including positive predispositions, as in "fallen heros" of firefighters and police officers, when considering recompense to the injured and the survivors of the war crime. I would like to see the workers, like dishwashers at Windows on the World for instance, treated in exactly the same manner as the workers who were trained to be in harms way and lost their lives. If there is a way to calculate the total benefit package amount per claimant and make them equal in all cases, I would be in favor of that. I quite imagine the professional life-saver has a secured pension for his or her survivors, whereas the exampled kitchen worker may have minimum settlement amounts from workers compensation payout for loss of life or limb. Also, in keeping with fair and equitable treatment, same sex spouses need to be treated the same as "legally" married partners, with appropriate proof of cohabitation and commitment. Thank you.
