TSA hires two types of people. Diversity hires who can't get a decent job anywhere in the private sector, and people who actually probably give a crap about security, who want to do their jobs well. The latter group leaves for other government jobs, out of frustration, leaving the less competent diversity hires to run the asylum.
Flying used to be a fun experience, it was exciting, going places. Now you have to decide if wherever you want to go is worth the humiliation and inconvenience. There's a project in Texas to get a high speed train from Houston to Dallas. It seemed reasonable, right up until the part where they came out and said TSA style security would be at the train stations. Uh, OK, so what's the point? Flying is faster, unless you get to save the hassle and humiliation of getting sexually assaulted by the TSA.
