All TSA has done has taken a thousand slightly different screening processes run by independent contractors and made it federal and standardized. I don't have too much problem with that, and lately I haven't found it much different than pre 9/11 security apart from improved technology and having to remove my shoes.

The TSA will definitely appreciate your defense of their policies and procedures. They expect to continue them and probably escalate them because of folks like you.
Apparently, you forgot about the fact that you can't bring your toothpaste...........you can't bring a bottle of liquor.............you can't bring your shampoo............
Apparently, your don't realize that the full body scanner takes significantly more time than the x-ray machine.
Apparently, you don't understand that the full body scanner demands that EVERYTHING be removed from EVERY pocket............a ridiculous PITA.
And you certainly don't understand that the entire shoe affair really sucks up the minutes.
The whole process is so slow that I don't believe they can process more than 120 people per hour at a single station. Patently ridiculous IMHO.
