OK, your world has enough "Delta Force or SEAL Team 6" people to put one on every flight without bankrupting the airlines. What color is the sky there?

Well, if the airlines would go bankrupt instituting proper security measures, then maybe we need to rethink our national transportation system. You seem to favor a feel-good system of minimal to nil effectiveness over an system that would actually work because the latter costs too much. You must be a professional beancounter.
