"'I thought this was an ill-conceived concept from the start which is one of the reasons why I voted against the [sequester],' said Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D). 'Nothing exemplifies this unbalanced and draconian approach to deficit reduction more than asking our heroes who have already sacrificed so much to sacrifice yet again so that Republican leadership could appease their special interests. Our 9/11 heroes who answered the call of duty should be treated with the same dignity as our veterans."
In fact, veterans have been treated like dirt by a government which has used them, abused them and discarded them (or worse -- see this, this, this, this and this) after they serve the interests of the super-elite.
War is a racket ... and so is the shameless exploitation of 9/11 for political purposes, while abusing the heroic first responders who risked their lives for their country.
