      I agree. It’s been 23 years… We can’t expect everyone to have the world trade center association forever. There are college graduates born after September 11, 2001.

        It’s one of the pillars of the military industrial complex, it’s not going away any time soon. What it actually means to individuals is largely irrelevant, beyond “9/11 bad thing happen”
