let me be the first to say i dont see where the families of 911 get off receiving one red cent from the american taxpayer. this is brutally unfair and unnecessary. i feel for them for their loss as much as anyone could, but the taxpayers do not owe them a thing. some of them even want more than 2 million bucks! id be embarrassed and ashamed to take the money. but i will say, i wish there was a fund for the surviving relatives of the true heroes, our men and women who get killed in combat. it disgusts me to no end to see mr spann's wonderful widow with her kids, and a step child, getting peanuts from the government, in comparison to what somebody gets from 9/11. how can she feel when some of the widows from 911 claim 2 million bucks isnt enough? where is the outrage? mr spann is the real hero, his family should get 2 million bucks from the taxpayers, not the folks in the world trade center, or the other two planes.

This was a way to protect the airlines from lawsuits. Sadly enough with every tragic,unexpected loss there are those lined up to sue......somebody, anybody, where-ever the deep pockets are.

Some of them are to be given well more than $4 million dollars. And they are still belly aching for more while the families of the men who die trying to make sure this never happens again get piddly.

It's because they are from that cesspool know of as NYC,"the greatest city in the world" (gag,puke!). It's the heartland of the left,the Mecca of the useless. The elites in this country all have a base there one way or the other,so they took this personally. If it had been anywhere else (with the possible exceptions of San Francisco or LA)the media and the elites wouldn't give a damn.

Personally,I don't even consider it to be a legimitate part of America.
