Fuel prices soaring, major cutbacks in aircraft and flights, large numbers of airline employees being furloughed, passengers, both business and leasure, beginning to shy away from flying, the industry heading towards a massive collapse and the TSA chooses this time to further infuriate the passengers that do remain by instituting another one of their bulls**t, hassle filled, useless rules

Why dont airline ceo's tell the TSA to take some of their useless, bulls**t rules and shove it?, you answered that question and it would probably not do any good if they did, but the idea of someone other then John Q Public standing up to TSA and telling them that is a nice thought indeed^ .
