Sure is good to know that Mr. Taxpayer is footing the bill for all of the costly, and (in his opinion) wasted security measures. The problem is, how exactly would he run the TSA or CBP cheaply. I bet he wouldn't pay extra for holidays, or overtime, or a minimum wage. There would be no pension or healthcare benefits, etc. The reality is that we are losing the war on terror because of our innate stupidity and inability to focus on anything for more than three or four days (daze). As a gratefully retired federal officer I understand the difficulties in agencies sharing information, and there are better ways to do things. But to knock the efforts of an entire federal agency (TSA) without any apparent professional knowledge is just plain spite. Sorry, just the facts.

We already spend far too much on airline security, and as a traveler I pay $25 for every ticket to get the incompetent guards that TSA provides who make me remove my shoes and go through long lines to get on airplanes that are not secure anyway!
Do you really expect an IBM analyst to recommend anything other than the government spend more money on security and hire IBM to do it! Ask the American people how much they are willing to give each year to fund security. I bet it is far lower than the government currently funds.
