1. I don't think it should be a holiday, I mean, they're gonna make it like one foe a little while, but it shouldn't officially be one. I mean, if that's the case then April 19 (I think, don't kill me) should be one because of Oklahoma City. And so-an-so date should be one because of such-and-such. Every bad thing that happens does not need a holiday for it. Most people use holidays as a time to eat. And be lazy. So why disgrace the day by making it a holiday?
2. See, reparations are such a sticky thing, because some have gotten LOTS of money, some have gotten little, and some nothing at all. I mean, outside of people employed at the WTC, how can you prove that someone deserves reparations? I mean, what about someone who was just walking down the street when they collapsed?? And like someone else said, what about those people who are already getting BUCKETS of money from pensions/insurance? WHo should pay the money? What happened wasn't anybody's fault but the people that did it. People argue that Bush and everybody knew about it, but, They hear about stuff like that EVERYDAY, and they probably got numerous other threats for that day, I mean, its kind of a hard position to be in, "ok, which threats MAY be real?" (ok, now I'm rambling) Anyway, reparations are usually paid when a wrong has been done, and unless the terrorist are gonna pay, I don't think so. What if they had just died in a car accident? Death happens, you have to deal with it in whatever form it comes in (not to sound mean AT ALL, that kind of death is HORRIBLE!!!).
3. This is a sticky one, I mean, the whole site is composed of dead bodies at this point, but I think that for such a large site, they need to rebuild it as something, but there HAS to be a memorial portion, and not something cheesy either.
