I wish I could find an article I stumbled on a few days ago.
The point of the article was basically:
The scanners do very little to actually improve the safety of passengers.
The scanners have cost millions and millions of dollars. Some people are getting incredibly, ridiculously wealthy off these machines. Lobbyists are making a killing promoting these pieces of shit.
The cost to benefit ratio is so fucking low its laughable.
Statistically speaking the money could protect far more individuals from harm if invested into law enforcement, social programs, medicine, etc.
