Don't forget, there is an awfully large pot of Gold to be found at the end of the "security" rainbow.
Its a self sustaining entity, and it will only get bigger..less capable and infinitely less flexible.
The results (as we have in the UK) need to be seen to be believed...cue idiotic security directives, terrorists under everyones beds, many and varied scenarios played out for an insignificant level of threat...and best of all, elevated stress levels for those who have to pass through the security apparatus which is manned for the most part by failed shelf stackers, retired prison officers and James Bond wannabes.
Yep Oz, you have a lot more to look forward too!
Oh yes, I forgot to mention....."security" is there for "your" safety
