And if anyone recalls post 9/11 when looking to hire people for the new TSA to work at airports they thought they should just rehire the people already doing security. The background checks found undisclosed criminal records, people not legal to work in the US, and other falsified records.
We don’t need privatization of security any more than we need privatization of other public services. They charge more and enshittify while the contracted service makes bank off the taxpayer.
