Flying out of CA? Government Wants to Make it More Inconvenient
Can't make this shit up. A Dem Senator in CA has introduced a bill to outlaw Clear in TSA lines because it "creates a “basic equity issue” that lets wealthier travelers bypass long security lines for a $189/year subscription. It’s about dignity in the travel experience of people who don’t have money to pay for upsell services,” Newman said.
How in the f**k do people living there possibly support this kind of idiocy? California bill aims to ban Clear from airport security lines |

I would say that the TSA ought to treat politicians they recognize JUST like they do the regular public. Disdain, inappropriate touching, etc. Let our overlords understand the way they have normal citizens treated. |

Clear lanes don't cost anything to "build" like HOV/toll lanes do.

I wonder if Senator Dumbass has a FasTrak transponder and drives in any "Lexus Lanes" on his way to work? Quote:

Clear is a private for-profit company, therefore evil. Government must "fix" it. TSA is government so CA can't tell them what to do or not do; they would if they could.

Look at all gov entities, fed & state & county & local, all are booming regarding new hires and retention. It will not end, as a cornerstone of socialism is to grow the gov far beyond its need, pay them above average wages, free benefits, and be the last provider of pensions. |

TSA Precheck and Global Entry are services from the .gov that cost extra, but are probably subsidized by the .gov since they're not very efficient at providing such things. |

Next they'll ban first class, owning luxury or sports cars, and any IQ over 90. All for 'equality'.

Yup - its coming! In Canada, there's a fucking luxury tax on any car/plane/boat over $100K, that is indexed to the increasing cost of the vehicle. Why? Because the "rich" need to pay their fair share of taxes! Last time I checked, the tax should be applied according to the item at the same rate, not an increasing rate as the item's cost increases. Fucking communist COCKSUCKERS! The only saving grace is that it only applies to new (up to 3 years old) vehicles, so since I love buying used, I haven't been subjected to it. |

Nah. I worked hard for my status in life, and it's so nice to cruise by all the plebes in the overcrowded commoner lanes.
