The long lines are being created by TSA so than they can sell the $85 per head pre-check. Just think. A family of 4 means $340 to the TSA.

Perhaps, but rewind the time machine to 2001, way back when this extra security started. Many folks were insisting that TSA enact a “known traveler” systems such as Pre-check. Lot’s of folks here on FreeRepublic were also insisting on it.
The real reason for the long lines are unions. The American Federation of Government Employees wants the government to grant full representation where AFGE can negotiate payscales, work hours, work conditions, etc. This is a deliberate slow down to get this passed.
