On all things considered, they mentioned the long lines and waits, then immediately started praising one Texas airport that was privatized, and didn’t have those waits.
The TSA is nothing more than security theater anyways, but we gotta find ways to funnel money into those pockets already flush with it I guess.
Once upon a time I would’ve thought privatization would be a surefire winner. Now the full-body scan data would probably go to some AI company, they’ll profile the shit out of people with their “proprietary algorithms” we’re not allowed to audit, and every agent will be a white male suddenly making twice what the old TSA agents were making.
Blackwater. But let’s be real, the gov only has the illusion of oversight. In practice most war criminals never face legitimate consequences. The American military industrial complex is the largest terrorist org that has existed since WW2.
If you add in the fact that US intelligence has allowed child sex traffickers to exist for decades under the guise of “national security”, the US gov is the largest criminal enterprise on Earth, period.
Yeah, they didn’t have waits because the private company is paying their workers, so they show up to do the job. TSA isn’t getting paid, so 40+% aren’t showing up.
NPR was promoting this yesterday!

Honest question, can I show your reply to someone who hasn’t been (color) pilled ?
Also consider private security forces don’t have pesky things like “oversight” and “laws regulating fairness”
Thata why Flock and Palantir exist now

That is the point exactly
