I won't pay a penny to be treated as everyone should be treated. This is blackmail pure and simple.

i agree completely. nfw should i have to pay for something that should be sop even for ma 'n pa kettle but remember we're talking about a government (or at least a governmentally related) program and sop in the same sentence which of course is a green light for it to get screwed in every and any way possible .

Also agree.

I'm not going to give into Comrade Hawley's little extortion scheme. He should be charged with extortion and bribery.

Except that in initial trials over 50% of users had to take their shoes off anyway. I believe the response from the company running the trial is that they expect travelers enrolled in the program to learn to wear shoes without metal in them.

Um, thanks....
