Ditch TSA Workers? Airports no longer allowed to 'opt out'

TSA will no longer allow airports to hire outside security contractors. Right now there are 16 airports that do have private security contractors and they are being closely watched for now. Many other airports that had applied for private security contractors were denied with short statements and little reason. The TSA screeners and private screeners are going to be compared to decide whether or not all screeners should be part of TSA.
Personally a think that yes there are quite a few rules that we abide by, but when it comes to security, the best is important. If a terrorist gets passed the security checkpoint they can go virtually anywhere--without another screening. They need to be stopped at the checkpoints. TSA officials are trained and are all together, there is no bidding on who will do the job for what price. Private contractors will try to get you to go through them, but they may not be the best for the job. I'd rather have inconvience with waiting, than my plane being hijacked by terrorists. I don't want low rate security screeners in my airport. I want the best. Our safety is more important than money, life has no price. If i had to wait in line for 4 hours to get to a security checkpoint, then needed a personal screening I wouldn't mind. I have nothing to hide, no reason to be nervous, and the people around me can feel more safe knowing that I am clean. The cases where people aren't clean need to be caught always. We the people should have no complaint about our government trying to keep us safe. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/41391509/ns/travel-news/
