Time to end TSA?

 The following is not surprising! The TSA is the only government organization that is not accountable (where are reports that define how many hijacks were averted), does not implement Customer Service/Process Improvement training and runs and was implemented on fear!

Like all government agencies, you see a number just hanging around (top heavy) and you’re considered guilty, which is contrary to our constitution.

Even lawmakers are considering whether it is time to "opt out."
Rep. John Mica, R-Fla., who helped write the bill creating the TSA, now says it, might be time to eliminate the government agency, NBC's WESH-TV reports.
Mica, who will chair the House Transportation Committee in the New Year, has sent letters to 150 airports suggesting that they dump TSA screeners and hire private security. Florida's Orlando Sanford Airport, which handles 2 million passengers a year, already plans to replace "testy" TSA screeners with private contractors.
The federal law that created the TSA gives airports the right to use private screeners, as long as they follow the Department of Homeland Security's rules and guidelines.
"As TSA has grown larger, more impersonal, and administratively top-heavy, I believe it is important that airports across the country consider utilizing the opt-out provision provided by law," Mica wrote in the letter.
