Looking at the fitness level of most TSA, would be interesting if most could hack it though.
adding 60K to the unemployment numbers would be a very minor blip on the radar, when you have north of 14 million Americans out of work.

Considering the pudgy clerks i have seen most couldnt lift 10% of there own body weight repeatedly and would probably keel over dead.
