I remember looking at the news days after the World Trade Center disaster, and seeing how The First Responders were digging in the rubble for survivors. The area looked dusty and smoky. I was thinking to myself that the air must be toxic because added to the dust and smoke were decaying bodies. None of The First Responders were wearing face mask to protect them from the toxic air. Most of the First Responders got gravely ill. Some of them died. September 11, 2001 was the tragic day; 18 years ago, and many unfounded excuses are being made to avoid paying 9/11 First Responders. The owner of the World Trade Center got his money in a flash to re-build and the World Trade Center stands. It is sad to say but, First Responders are sick and dying. The dollar devil rule.
