9/11 Workers Cheated
The heroes of 9/11 have been cheated; this is such an injustice on the government's part. How can they deny that there is a link between the health issues?! Dr. Stephen Levin, the director of Mount Sinai's monitoring program and a co-author of the study, complained that his patients were "being called malingerers and liars and cheats" when they sought health benefits from the government. Is this the way that we treat our heroes? We bash them when they reach out for help? There is striking evidence linking the sick to Ground Zero. There are workers complaining that the air was so dense and smoky that they were choking for a fresh breath. The Environmental Protection Agency assured the public and the workers that the air was healthy and there was nothing to worry about. Well look at that, another lie from the government. These poor people dedicated hundreds of hours to cleaning up the mess, some have died from the illnesses they have been exposed to, and the rest have to live with ailments like cancer for the rest of their lives, however long that may be... this is a shame and I hope it will force more people to pay attention to what is going on. By the way do the environments in the pictures look healthy to work in???
Here are the links to the sites that I found but originally it was covered on CNN briefly...

Can you link to the original article? I haven't heard of this. If its true, it probably should be getting more publicity.
Ow, my retinas!
Also, you still need to change your settings to allow anyone to comment.
