Lukewarm take: TSA and Air Traffic Controllers need to be simply funded by an excise tax on airlines, and not subject to annual appropriations bills.

At the very least, put TSA under a lower controversy department like DOT so airports aren't subjected to being a political football as often.

@JessTheUnstill the #USA needs to fucking take a chill pill either way.

  • Being treated worse as legal entrant than a serial murderer in a prison in Germany is just a major dick move.
    • And to add insult to injuriy the #US is the only nation notorious for doing vibes-based immigrations with neither recourse nor appeals regardless of existing visa!

@kkarhan TSA isn't the same as CBP (the ones who manage customs). TSA is just the ones who do a simple "does your ID match your ticket" and baggage checking.

@JessTheUnstill I know.

TSA are the assholes that are harrassing people sexually tocthe point that I've yet to hear any non - US-citizen that wasn't mistreated.

@kkarhan Regardless, reorganize under a department whose goal is going to be to make air travel work will be better than being under a department whose goal is that everyone is a criminal until proven otherwise.

That's why everywhere else incentives are pushed to make the workflow as frictionless as possible for passengers.
