    Freethought project? Seems a little tinfoil hat to generalize the TSA who has over 50,000 officers as all tyrannical and corrupt. I think the cases of the things pointed out are probably in the sub .1% range when you're talking about that many agents handling safety checks for almost 2 million people in the US flying daily.

    On top of that, it's not like TSA agents are a super-skilled high-paying job. All it takes is a high school diploma and making it through an interview and background check, and the pay is just in the $25k-30k/yr range. Not that salary is an excuse, but when you have that many employees working in a high-stress, repetitive and boring, relatively low-pay, and frankly (no offense to TSA agents) but not super-high skilled or growth-type job dealing with masses of public people, it's not surprising if there are a few bad ones. I've never had trouble and I've been surprised to see agents be friendly when dealing with lots of rude, sweaty, grumpy, ungrateful travelers.

    Well all of them can basically grope you in front of other airline passengers. The problem is the policy.

    I'm sorry, what gains are you speaking of? The TSA is fucking terrible at doing its job, 95% failure rate is atrocious.
