Rep. John L. Mica: Bring back private screeners
USA Today Editorial

"Those who believe a large federal screening force is the answer to aviation security are fooling themselves...


...With proper regulation and oversight, private screeners have proved to be at least as effective if not better than federal screeners. At a minimum, they will be deployed more efficiently and in a more cost-effective way. Then, references to the TSA as "Thousands Standing Around" will be history."

Hopefully that regulation and oversight will be extremely minimal. More members of Congress are waking up to what a waste the TSA is.
