My my, how soon they forget. All of those people were heros to so many out here. Must be the House has bigger fish to fry, and it doesn`t involve helping the everyday people who were there on 911. They can`t help the everyday folk, but let`s go out of our way to fund a war, give themselves a pay raise, and ignore the immigrant issue and help all the banks and print up a big batch of stimulus money that the people will never see.

Yeahhhhh, way to go government.(I wonder if their mothers had any kids that lived.)

I was told that once the healthcare bill passed, those with diseases or disorders that were expensive to treat would be the first to be allowed to die without treatment. It's so much cheaper to just try and make their last days comfortable.

Just to let the conspiracy theorist out for a moment, I wonder if they are smart enough to figure out that if the government does not support rescue workers if they become ill saving Americans, that less and less of them actually will.

Think about this way: The thousands of men and women that immediately jumped into the rubble on 9/11 are now sick and some of them are dying and some already have. The government seems to be turning their back on them or at least making it as difficult as possible for them to receive compensation and the healthcare they require [which is really ironic since Obama just passed legislation that gives healthcare to everyone anyway].

In the future, should there be another attack [this is really when, not if], how many of them will give pause before jumping in? How much time will be lost gathering haz-mat gear and the like in order to not take any chances? Will we find ourselves, as citizens, not rushing to immediate action but rather sitting back and waiting for the "professionals" to handle it in order to avoid becoming sickly and uncared for ourselves?

One thing's for sure, had those rescue workers not jumped in as fast as they did, we would certainly have a much higher death toll. Had regular citizens not stopped to try and help people out of the staircases and out the front door, we would be mourning numbers in the 10,000's. Could this be a way to maximize loss of life in the event of a tragedy or false flag event?

Never mind.
They aren't smart enough to put that all together anyway.

Meanwhile US gives billions and billions of dollars to Israel each year in aid.

The corruption, hypocrisy and evil are beyond belief. I just don't understand how Americans are doing nothing about this.

Of course they are going to reject aid to their own people...they routinely send Americans to die in a war that means more to the profiteers than it does to any kind of justice...

Our entire system is a sham and the people that have trusted our leadership always get shafted for that trust...

Where would the money come from?

Seriously, from a political point of view there isn't enough potential votes to be gained from the victims of this.

Now if there were more than a million affected....

Okay, I just got wind of this vote today, I read thru the article and I am trying to understand the reason(s) why this was voted against and significantly so. Is it just a power struggle/move between both parties? Is it about money and how much?
What exactly is going on? I can't find any specifics....
