    Because the airline industry isn't just a "private industry". It has a major impact on US national security, hence why the Federal government is so involved in airline security with TSA, Sky Marshals, etc.

    It is a private industry, they have managed to leach off the taxpayer for decades.

    American Airlines Group. NASDAQ:AAL. $32.65. up. ...
    JetBlue Airways. NASDAQ:JBLU. $16.71. up. ...
    Copa Holdings. NYSE:CPA. $82.85. no change. ...
    United Continental Holdings, Inc. NASDAQ:UAL. $82.55. down. ...
    Delta Air Lines. NYSEAL. $47.58. ...
    Southwest Airlines. NYSE:LUV. $47.81. ...
    Allegiant Travel. NASDAQ:ALGT. $108.52. ...
    Spirit Airlines. NYSE:SAVE. $57.57.
    If it's not a private industry, where are my services I should get in return for my tax dollars?

    If you don't like get the laws change. For now though there are Federal regulations in place, especially since 2001.

    If you play your cards right, you can get felt up for free. That should count for something.

    Whats incredibly stupid about this shut down over terrorist security is that 0 terrorists have been caught at the border with Mexico and all of the terrorists have been caught at airports where the TSA is now being hamstrung. Way to go, dimwits!
