All talk and no action.
Meanwhile, Congress gave Neffy $$$ and absolutely nothing has changed.
I take that back. Money that could have been spent on hiring screeners has instead been spent on untested new technology that must be installed right now, in the middle of huge manufactured slowdowns - and at the world's busiest airport.
Once it is installed, it will be the only fully-staffed checkpoint not operating under deliberate slowdowns. This will be used to 'prove' that the expensive new technology is the answer to all our problems, meaning full-speed ahead installing the new technology in all airports.
Does Neffy have a personal stake in the company that manufactures and installs this expensive 'new technology'? Is he using his remaining months in office to feather his retirement nest while pax are put at risk?
