What defines an acceptable level of risk?
Who would best be responsible/accountable for administering it?
Who would be be in charge of oversight?


I've just been thinking how good it would be to offer a solution.

Thoughts?
Thanx Fish.

As to these:

Who would best be responsible/accountable for administering it?
Who would be be in charge of oversight?
I'm thinking that security must be handed back to the Airlines and the Airports, so that the Constitution and the free market can answer these questions:

How would the passenger and/or baggage screening process change?
What defines an acceptable level of risk?

There speaks a Libertarian Capitalist. Besides, I'm a huge believer in the Keep It Simple Silly system of problem solving.

Living in a free society means sacrificing the false security government control represents. The answers to these all important questions are unknown to me, but that's OK. I don't have to know the answers from the beginning in order to go about arriving at the correct solution.
