I like the idea of TSA being kicked out of airports.
Major US Airport To Evict TSA Screeners
Wednesday, March 14, 2012
"Orlando Sanford International, has announced it will opt out of using TSA workers to screen passengers...
With Sanford International having originally been prevented by the TSA from opting out back in November 2010 when the federal agency froze the ability for airports to use their own private screeners, a law passed by the Senate last month forces the TSA to reconsider applications."

Senate Passes Bill Allowing Airports To Evict TSA Screeners
Tuesday, February 7, 2012
"The Senate has passed legislation that includes a provision allowing airports to replace TSA screeners with private security..
Should airports choose to replace TSA screeners with their own private security, it would not only mean the screeners were better trained and more responsible for their actions, alleviating the problems of thefts and abuse by TSA workers, but it would also create tens of thousands of much needed jobs for the private sector.
...contract security personnel are more courteous than government workers,"

Hopefully a sign of the pendulum swing that brings our country back from the socialist brink.

I fail to see what this has to do with socialism.
It's a great thing, however. Immediate accountability instead of union rules. Sounds good to me.
I also fail to see how any of this has to do with the free market. As airports are usually owned by local and state governments, there private security firms are merely being handed government contracts.
I don't understand your post, SB. If TSA-type security is out-sourced, that supports the free market, yes? But I don't even "get" why free market is relevant here...
By free-market, I am referring purely to the supply and demand dynamics of the private sector. Outsourcing a government job has little to do with the free market. The government is merely replacing its own employees with someone else's. It's still public-sector spending.
That's interesting. I'd never thought about this. Who owns airports? Who owns O'Hare Field? Hmmmm......

For the love of all that is holy....please everyone follow suit!
El Al has the best airline security in the world. They are a private company.

There isn't enough room on this server to post the failures and problems with central-controlled government monopoly.
Monopoly government does everything poorly. Competing service providers product better, cheaper and more efficient products.
Wikipedia - Anarcho-capitalism
In an anarcho-capitalist society, law enforcement, courts, and all other security services would be provided by voluntarily-funded competitors such as private defense agencies rather than through taxation, and money would be privately and competitively provided in an open market. According to anarcho-capitalists, personal and economic activities would be regulated by the natural laws of the market and through private law rather than through politics. Furthermore, victimless crimes and crimes against the state would not exist.
Anarcho-capitalists argue for a society based on the voluntary trade of private property and services (including money, consumer goods, land, and capital goods) in order to maximize individual liberty and prosperity. However, they also recognize charity and communal arrangements as part of the same voluntary ethic. Though anarcho-capitalists are known for asserting a right to private (individualized or joint non-public) property, some propose that non-state public or community property can also exist in an anarcho-capitalist society. For them, what is important is that it is acquired and transferred without help or hindrance from the compulsory state. Anarcho-capitalist libertarians believe that the only just, and/or most economically beneficial, way toacquire property is through voluntary trade, gift, or labor-based original appropriation, rather than through aggression or fraud.
Anarcho-capitalists see free-market capitalism as the basis for a free and prosperous society. Murray Rothbard said that the difference between free-market capitalism and "state capitalism" is the difference between "peaceful, voluntary exchange" and a collusive partnership between business and government that uses coercion to subvert the free market. "Capitalism," as anarcho-capitalists employ the term, is not to be confused with state monopoly capitalism, crony capitalism, corporatism, or contemporary mixed economies, wherein market incentives and disincentives may be altered by state action. So they reject the state, based on the belief that states are aggressive entities which steal property (through taxation and expropriation), initiate aggression, are a compulsory monopoly on the use of force, use their coercive powers to benefit some businesses and individuals at the expense of others, create monopolies, restrict trade, and restrict personal freedoms via drug laws, compulsory education, conscription, laws on food and morality, and the like. The embrace of unfettered capitalism leads to considerable tension between anarcho-capitalists and many social anarchists that view capitalism and its market as just another authority. Anti-capitalist anarchists generally consider anarcho-capitalism a contradiction in terms, and vice versa.

I love all the emotional "RAWR HATE TSA" posts without any actual attempt to understand what's being done here.
The allowance for airports to opt out and privatize the workforce does not in any way, shape, or form indicate a differnece in protocol or method in which screening will occur. Private Security in these situations must adhere to the same federal regulations regarding the screening of passengers. The only difference is that the hiring, managing, and personnel are all private contractors rather than federal employees. Your pat downs, body scans, shoes coming off, etc are going to be occuring whether its Random TSO or Random Security Guy that's manning the line.
The perception is that there's an overwhelming bureaucracy that is preventing the TSA from being able to effectively make common sense exceptions and from being able to punish / prevent violations of common decency with much effectiveness.
The other perception is that these private companies will be more responsive to these needs of their clients and the client's travelers.

By all indications, they were very courteous to Mohammed Atta on the morning of 9/11/01. That was kind of the problem. It was obvious enough that even the Republican party wanted to "socialize" airport security. They were, after all, in charge of both houses of Congress and the White House when the TSA and Department of Homeland Security were created.
