PreCheck is the perfect example of a fee-for-service model of government, in which those of us who value our time more, travel regularly, and are willing to undergo a background check are rewarded with a more predictable experience. Bravo to the TSA for understanding that capitalism isn't the enemy, something folks on here seem to have forgotten.
Why should any citizen have to pay to not be scanned or groped at a checkpoint?
PreCheck has absolutely NOTHING to do with the TSA understanding capitalism "is not the enemy." It is pure extortion which results in making some people more equal than others.
