A big GOP created “make work” program of security theater.
Less of a “make work” program and more of subsidy to keep the privatized airlines afloat.
Not sure how many people here remember the times immediately after 9/11, but a significant portion of the population were basically refusing to fly again for quite a while afterwards. Airlines were scrambling to get people to fly again and there were talks going around about them either going under or being socialized.
The TSA was basically a program meant to get scared Americans back on planes so airlines could maintain enough profitability to remain privately owned.
How come the terrorists that can’t get on board of a commercial flight with their water-borne explosive charges haven’t committed an act of terror with a private plane?
That’s what nearly all the intrusion tests and studies have indicated. A big GOP created “make work” program of security theater.

So it’s a multi-layer fuck you to the people, then.
Yep, especially when you realize that it’s basically a poor people punishment cause people with private jets don’t get the same treatment
