the difference between death benefits for 9/11 and wartime is pretty simple, and it has nothing to do with the income level of our ALL VOLUNTEER MILITARY, it is insurance.

The airlines, and owners of the buildings and employers all have insurance, with decent benefits.

The military has a lot more potential payouts, and are payed by taxpayers, hence the differtence.
