TSA can't fix the screening problems as long as the employee problem isn't addressed and they screen for non-threats.

Removal of shoes, belts, and light outerwear is a procedure looking for a problem that doesn't exist. WBI is another bottleneck that should only be used for secondary screening and as GAO has recommended the BDO program should be ended and those screeners either returned to screening duties are discharged as excess.

Neffenger might make a difference but I won't be holding my breath for anything that improves the passengers experience when encountering TSA.
