Confirmation that our tax money is being wasted

on dangerous people like me who dare to try to bring pocketknives onto the plane, rather than people who forge invalid id cards in an effort to prove how useless the government is. The dude who actually did this probably thinks they need to step up security, but I have a much better idea -- just document better who goes through security. ID cards all have magentic strips on them by now, so swipe them for a quick criminal background check. That way, you'll have to be a legal citizen to fly anywhere or go into government buildings, and TSA will be able to screen out 95% of the people who get in currently who are actually likely to do any damage. I mean, seriously, so much time and money gets wasted on stuff that doesn't even matter.
