The TSA issues make no sense Macrodosing

@MacrodosingPod Congress has authorization and appropriations bills to fund agencies. Fee-based funding still needs congressional authorization. Regardless, @SenateDems suck and are holding @TSA, @USCG, @SecretService, and @FEMA hostage to protect illegals.

@MacrodosingPod Because Democrats won’t fund DHS, which funds TSA.

It's not that the government is out of money, it's that Congress needs to allow the money to be spent in each agency. That's how the Constitution works. Also, once that funding is approved, all back pay goes to the employees who were not paid during the shutdown. So the fees will go to TSA once reopened.

@MacrodosingPod Ah yes, barstool sports is where I go to get accurate, unbiased political and economic takes

@MacrodosingPod I swear every time I travel it feels like a different set of rules. One airport lets something through, the next acts like it’s a serious problem. If it’s really about safety, why does it feel so inconsistent?

@MacrodosingPod Privatizing TSA was all in Project 2025 btw 👍

@MacrodosingPod You think a private corporation will just accept and run on a $5.60/trip fee? Delusional Just move TSA to DOT and their budget. Less controversial during a shutdown.

@MacrodosingPod Trump is holding TSA hostage and doing so willingly, his decision alone and he could give a shit less if common folk are even more inconvenienced on top of all the rest of the shit he's piled on us to crater all hope. @ConnerHKnapp @BarstoolChief

@MacrodosingPod Guys your logic isn’t bad in theory, but as soon as you bring in a private corp youre going to need to heavily regulate them, otherwise theyll just continue to make cuts over time. Trump admin will give it the contract to highest bidder with no oversight which is really bad!

@MacrodosingPod The republicans have the majority. Why can’t they get this done?

@MacrodosingPod I would pay $100 for them to leave me the fuck alone

@MacrodosingPod Whatever it costs for TSA to do it, you could easily halve that cost under a private company. The government has never run anything efficiently.

@MacrodosingPod Privatization costs more and you get less service

@MacrodosingPod There's a very simple solution. Democrats could choose to fund DHS instead of protecting illegal immigrants from being deported. That's right, Democrats want you to wait in five hour lines so they can have a better shot at winning the house every two years

@MacrodosingPod Travelers already pay a TSA tax on every ticket. The money just needs to be allocated by Congress.

First, stop applying common sense to government problems—it never works. Second, every possible solution has to be voted on before it can be implemented. Welcome to the government. Basically, it doesn't matter what we pay in taxes, even if it's for a specific program. It's about approving a budget that all parties will agree to. Now include stupid politicians in that equation. We are cooked...

@MacrodosingPod Privatize it.

@MacrodosingPod Dems don’t care about you the people only politics…you are just a pawn for the game

@MacrodosingPod Just like every other tax it was all lumped into the treasury and that way they control all of it

@MacrodosingPod Same airport, same bag… completely different experience every time 😂

@MacrodosingPod Love that everyone is figuring out the financial scams in our world 😂

@MacrodosingPod Except it will never stop at $5 They will increase and increase and increase until They find other to restrict the service you are getting

@MacrodosingPod Clear is so sketchy though

@MacrodosingPod It sure doesn’t 🚶🏼

@MacrodosingPod bro i’m what universe will private tsa cost more. think before you speak

@MacrodosingPod how much they paying you for this pro*ect 2025 promo!!? government shit shouldn’t be privatized

@MacrodosingPod Ask your Republican representatives. They’re the ones refusing a stand alone TSA funding bill.

@MacrodosingPod If you aren’t breaking the law who cares. More staff helps the lines. People need to chill, unless you are a criminal then I get why you are mad

@MacrodosingPod Hmm the obvious answer is , the tsa gets back pay so the money is frozen not stolen , imagine working 365 days and getting whole check on day 365. The company still collects money to pay employees , tsa still collects fees to pay employees they will get a fat back pay check .

@MacrodosingPod That’s a stupid idea. Why don’t you guys just take all that money and give it to Israel instead?

@MacrodosingPod Republicans want this dude. It’s part of project 2025.

@MacrodosingPod Only an issue in a cpl cities. My brother flew out of Dallas this morning and said lines were short to normal length

@MacrodosingPod And so the innocent TSA workers would lose their job just because the Democrats had another hissy fit about protecting illegals? Why should these TSA officers have to suffer?

@MacrodosingPod Israel, Australia , New Zealand and many other nations DO NOT DO THIS NONESENSE You show up and get on your plane Thats it This is Kabuki security
