WASHINGTON (AP) - Airport security remains lax despite billions of
dollars and thousands of federal employees added since the Sept. 11
attacks, lawmakers were told Thursday.
A pair of government investigations submitted to the House aviation
subcommittee found dangerous objects still get past
security checkpoints. And they said neither government nor privately
employed screeners performed their jobs well.
But we've spend billions of dollars right? They made me miss my plane
to Hawaii because I'd forgotten my toenail clippers were in my carryon
and I was subjected to a cavity search by a big guy named Bubba who
didn't use enough lube! We should be safe!
Nope. Wanna guess why?
The inspector general's report, as well as the GAO study, portrayed
the TSA as an unresponsive inflexible bureaucracy. For example, it does
not allow its own airport security directors or private contractors to
fill vacancies as soon as they arise, causing staff shortages. Instead,
the TSA sets up temporary assessment centers to process applicants.

Let me guess? Union rules right?
