Dumb... Clear just funnels their people into the TSA Pre-check line. Not the regular line. Anyone can get the TSA Pre-check done if you're willing to take the time to do it.... Well, most anyone.

And, oddly, its not wealthy travelers that I see using Clear.

And if you have a TWIC, you already have a known traveler ID and should be precheck anyway if you input it at time of ticket purchase.

Clear sends you to the regular line if you don't have Precheck. It's completely separate from the Precheck system.

Why someone would do clear without Precheck? I don't know.

I will say I've only had to use Clear a few times (like Seattle which has notorious long Precheck lines). Clear needs to speed up their process. It's only useful if Precheck is over like 50 so people deep because Clear is so slow.

This. Clear (and precheck which is the same idea) funnel travelers through a different line. Which means the main security line is shorter and faster when Clear is open.

This is the cliffs note version of many liberal legislations. "WE WONT TAKE SH** FROM THOSE RICH FOLKS" and then uninentended consequences kick in...
