I think we substantially agree on everything but the TSA -- there, the President/Congress nationalized an entire industry. They replaced it with a federal agency that hasn't shown to be any better at all. To say that as an administration, the Bush admin doesn't think that independent contractors (what airline security used to be) can't do a good job defies logic. We've never in the history of the nation used more independent contractors for national security purposes than right now.. I agree as to more airline security, not less, but does the government really have to foot the bill? Why can the airports not supply this competently?

(something for another thread I guess)
