Airport/aircraft security...Privatization?

[RealDeal]

Based on the FAA's history of shitty airport security, airlines repeatedly being warned of poor aircraft safety, etc. what are your opinions on taking the job of airport/aircraft security from the FAA and placing it in the hands of private companies.

Keep in mind private companies would make this their business and the job they do will determine their continued contracts & profits. Personally, I think they'd do a much better job.

Also, once airports are reopened, you will need a physical ticket to enter the concourse area (past security) meaning only ticketed passengers will be permitted beyond security checkpoints. No curbside checkin, etc. Give yourself plenty of time!!!

Yes privatize it...I dont see what else could go wrong if you put private security companies involved in the security

I don't personally feel safe in Houston Airports with most of the HPD officers I see there...I can't remember how many times I walked through airport security with a Swiss Army knife in my pocket....Though I used to for repairing my track spikes and cutting athletic tape I'm shocked the security alarms never went off with it in my pocket
