Agreed. The two posters above have it right. The TSA and its request for $6 billion are just the beginning. The difficulty will be weaning our country from this costly "security" mistake over the next decades.

The price for airport security tripled, essentially, (with minimal security improvement IMHO) when the airport security people were made federal employees. This will cost more than the State Department, and it will go on for years.
