Exactly, spend the money where the threat is -- The border. Not airports.....We have already spent enough money trying to protect those as best we can. We don't need full-body scanners, they are a waste of taxpayer money because they don't prevent someone from packing explosives in their carry-on. I've had big sacks/pouches of protein powder in my bag many times, and nobody ever asks to inspect it. It could have been explosives and they wouldn't have known.
