Let's look at what our government can do and how fast they can do it when it's tax paying U.S. citizens and not illegal aliens they want to inconvenience.

The TSA hired more than 60,000 employees from the 1.5 million applicants for those jobs and covered 430 airports in one year's time.

You're saying that there are an average of no more than 10,000 to 12,000 TSA employees available for screening work, at those 430 airports, at any given time?

No, you're saying it's even worse than that. In your example, you claim a total workforce of 750,000 only has 25,000 working at any given time.

So, there are only 2,000 TSA screeners in 430 airports at any given time according to you?

You're also saying that those 60,000 plus TSA employees cost the U.S. Taxpayers $120,000 each per year?

"Considering that the loaded rate..."

There's something "loaded" at your house and it's not just the rate.

LOL!

60,000 people for 430 airports, now multiply that number of people for the appx. 19,000 miles of borders for the US. Canadian, Mexican, water, etc.etc.

And they've done a wonderfully inept job.

You're saying that there are an average of no more than 10,000 to 12,000 TSA employees available for screening work, at those 430 airports, at any given time?

Yup. The rest are paper-pushers.

You're also saying that those 60,000 plus TSA employees cost the U.S. Taxpayers $120,000 each per year?

Yes. Salary is but a small part of the total employment cost.
