Long overdue. Nothing frustrates me more than to personally witness on a daily basis the bloated legions of TSA government employees gladly lounging around the airport without a care in the world. Instead of patrolling to look for trouble, they dispatch teams of 3 who either look at the floor, talk on their phones, or shuffle their feet while gnawing on some McD's..

Just to note; Ron Paul has also been a huge advocate of abolishing the TSA (and many other departments of government):

Actually, this merely looks like a good start to me...
