Actually, I suspect the American people will not tolerate it -- or the incredibly long lines at times -- and, as a result, passenger loads will continue to drop. When the Federal Government has to bail out the airlines yet again, maybe someone will draw the connection.

What really amazes me is that this kind of treatment makes some passengers -- masochists, obviously -- feel better! On two separate occasions, I saw passengers demand to be searched. What, didn't they know if they were terrorists? Just amazing.
