In general what I have seen occur is a process something like this;
1. Good idea comes along to do 'X'
2. Suggestion to do 'X' is brought before a committee
3. Work Group is established to discuss 'X' and make recommendation
4. Members of various Departments and Agencies comprise Work Group and are instructed to ensure that Department/Agencie's turf is not infringed upon by new idea 'X'
5. Each and every detailed point of 'X' is given to compromise and special interest (Congresscritters are not going to tip-over the rice bowls of their constituents, in this case State and local LE)
6. Resulting 'Y' has little to nothing to do with 'X' and is generally a very thin candy coating that is pointless and very expensive.
7. American people soak up the tab for 'Y' and it grows into an enourmous bureacracy.
TSA, along with other organizations created post 9-11, is dysfunctional by design.
You may thank your elected officials for that.
