TSA Screening Barely Works Better Than Chance!

 Machines
Some of us have known this for quite some time...
An agency that corporations supply with machines and therefore lobbyist in Washington to justify its existence so they have someone to sell machines to. The machines are actually useless when it comes down to it.

Now the other reality is settling in...
"The General Accounting Office (GAO) has completed a study of the TSAs SPOT (Screening of Passengers by Observation Techniques) program and found the program is only slightly better than chance at finding criminals. Given that the TSA has spent almost a billion dollars on the program, that's a pretty poor record. As a result, the GAO is requesting that both Congress and the president withhold funding from the program until the TSA can demonstrate its effectiveness."
