@Doug: Yes, we are questioning TSA regulations (not the work ethics, not the need for security, not the attitudes of employees), that are "security theater" as I've seen it described elsewhere (http://www.theatlantic.com/doc/200811/airport-security or http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/12/18/60minutes/main4675524.shtml to use the first two google hits).

What precisely that has to do with stimulus packages, etc. I'm not sure though the very creation of DHS and all its parts was a massive expenditure.
