But such a simple solution won't make companies any money. And you know it's all about making companies money these days. Especially when the top administrators can get a kickback in the form of a high-paying lobbying job once they quit the TSA.

No, as a matter of fact it was a rip-off of a novel by Tom Clancy [wikipedia.org] (read the last paragraph of the plot summary).
