More Airline "Security"

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100402/ap_on_go_ca_st_pe/us_aviation_security;_ylt=AqkYCq0._UacmxMHsPpOZ2GyFz4D;_ylu=X3oDMTJsdjRpY282BGFzc2V0A2FwLzIwMTAwNDAyL3VzX2F2aWF0aW9uX3NlY3VyaXR5BGNwb3MDMgRwb3MDNARzZWMDeW5fdG9wX3N0b3J5BHNsawN1c3RvYmVnaW5pbnQ-

While all of this seems misguided (why wouldn't terrorists just target us via another source... like subways for example... instead of going through the enhanced trouble given by the TSA at Airports?), and will also result in more hassle for average, peaceful Americans (and non-Americans) to travel in order to visit family and friends in distant places... these additional screenings will not protect against more terrorist attacks.

It amazes me that anyone still trusts the Government to keep us safe. The TSA is not driven to serve the customer. If it were left to the Airlines themselves to protect their property, you would see a near perfect balance between safety and efficiency.

Not to mention the very cause for terrorism is our own Military-Industrial Complex and it's behaviors overseas.

But as long as people are scared and looking to the State as their caretaker, those seeking more power and money will gladly take advantage of the docile masses.
