honestly it’s fairly ridiculous that you can pay a fee and all of a sudden be less of a security risk. Hard to argue that it makes the skies any safer

yes I’m aware that there’s a background check. I had to go thru all that to get a TWIC. But 99.9% of the unwashed masses in the TSA line can pass a background check. It doesn’t mean shite

Then pay the fee. 99.9% of the unwashed aren't frequent flyers. They fly once in a blue moon. Clear and TAS Pre-Check spending big money flying weekly or monthly. They SHOULD be able to pay a fee for expedited processing.

All you are promoting is a difference between the ultra wealthy and everyone else. Collapsing all other classes into the same bucket - downwards.

Very liberal of you. The ultra-wealthy will always get a pass in every way, there is no stopping that. Taxes. Flights, etc. Let the next 10% of the population have something. And let the rest have something to shoot for. Aim higher than themselves.

I wonder about that one a lot. I have TSA precheck free with one of my credit cards, and we had one meeting with someone 7 years ago for 10 minutes, then just apply for renewal every 4-5 years. I think it costs like $100 for 5 years. Not like it's expensive.
