IMO there are other choices. Let each airline be responsible for their own level of security. Congress needs to defund TSA totally. The government can and should close the borders and deport everyone who is here illegally. If FedEx can track their packages all over the world, why can’t the govt tap into this technology? In the meantime, metal detectors and wands only and eliminate all carry ons except for a small purse for women and a diaper bag for mom’s with babies.
So let me get this straight. You want to turn security over our sky to outfits like Saudi Airlines and Pakistani International Airlines and take it away from the US Government? That sounds like a great idea. What can possibly go wrong with that arrangement?
