TSA WASTING THE EQUIVALENT OF 1000 LIVES PER YEAR

The TSA searches are causing greater loss of useable lifetime than terrorists ever could. Each year, about 800 million people have to arrive one hour earlier at the airport to wait in lines and now suffer increased humiliation. Human beings only live for 700,000 hours. The TSA is wasting over 1000 lifetimes each year.

    Plus when people drive instead of flying (because they don't want to get treated like garbage by tsa) they are more likely to die per mile traveled!
