There is no situation that can’t be made worse by adding more Government.
NetMeeting....
Very odd. I was just there a week ago for an international flight on United, albeit through priority security, and didn’t notice anything.
I’m from the government and I’m here to help.........................
Isn’t this the Cloward-Piven strategy?
Overload the system to precipitate a crisis, then you can use that crisis to further your actual goal.
So the question becomes: what goal does the Obama administration want to achieve?
Universal background checks on Americans?
The system is not broken, the government is breaking it to achieve another goal.
Rental cars for <500mi.
No sympathies. They bought the ticket knowing full well what awaits them.
See the USA in your Chevrolet. And get to your destination quicker or at least with less hassle and humiliation.
Two hours and fifty minutes before my flight, I was clear of security and in the terminal wondering what I was going to do for all of that time. (Happily, there was a bar with halfway decent beer.)
And it wil not ease. Travel restrictions.
You think it is slow NOW??
Just wait until TSA Unionizes, and stages a nationwide slowdown for Mo’ Money.
Has anyone here ever flown out of Israel? How long are their security lines? How many terrorist incidents have they had?
This is a government run scam. And its dangerous too. The TSA is causing the lines on purpose. And as we have seen in Belgium, bombs can go off in a TSA line just as easily as anywhere else. The TSA is serving up a terrorist event.
The government is trying to promote that we need more infrastructure spending. That the Airports architecture is causing the long line. But in Chicago both airports have been modified after 911 to handle far more TSA lines. In Chicago OHare there are 9 different lines to get into the domestic flights but some have been closed to handle employees or are just closed because there is nobody there. TSA wants more agents. And Congress wants to give states more money. But they need this call to action, political cover. So the TSA in causing a slow down.
When the first terrorist hits these lines like they hit LA or Belgium, I am blaming those deaths on Government employees.
Phil Lebeau of CNBC is just giving the government line. He is saying there is some problem even though we have the same flyers going through the same airports as last year.
flying out of Charles de Gaul two days after the Brussells bombing was hellish.
This is a DHS shakedown courtesy of Obummer and his boy Jeh. Work slow-down is a classic union negotiating tool to win concessions. This is so transparent, it’s almost funny.
Why has this become this bad all of the sudden?
I have to take a flight out of BOS next week. Any one travel outta there recently having problems?
I travel a lot (Delta Diamond) and think the TSA creates more risks that it prevents. Consider the packed crowds OUTSIDE security and where most airport bombings occur. Thank TSA for putting th public at risk. /s
