Every reported success or accomplishment by the TSA should be followed by one simple question: But at what cost?

The value of an accomplishment can only be fairly judged by weighing it against the cost in time, aggravation, loss of liberty and resources.

One example (made up numbers).

This week the TSA discovered 28 handguns at airport checkpoints around the country. But at what cost? [Insert evaluation of costs here.]
Big difference.
