    I think you’re making a more broad point and using 9/11 as an example, but regarding 9/11 specifically, if it weren’t for Jon Stewart and others working alongside him, Congress would’ve long ago stopped providing for the fire and police that were on the front lines that day. So no, of course we don’t take care of people on the backend of the rescue efforts. What do you think this is, some sort of not-fucked country?

      Much like the US government you forgot about the veterans we also don’t take care of. We have a long and storied tradition of sending people to go fuck themselves
