How do you know they chose to not fly _because of the TSA_? What if it's the opposite and they chose not to fly out of (statistically ridiculous) fear of terror

How do you know they chose to not fly _because of the TSA_? What if it's the opposite and they chose not to fly out of (statistically ridiculous) fear of terrorism?
- murtnowski 10y agoI don't fly because of the TSA. I have zero fear of terrorism on my flight.
- mindslight 10y agoObviously you/we don't represent the majority. GP is a valid point, in that without polling the people who are choosing to drive [0], we don't know their actual motivation. [0] Don't give the thugs any ideas
- mvid 10y agoIf the increase in driving happened at the same time as an increase in TSA, then you don't need polling.
- mindslight 10y agoCorrelation is not causation. For example (as was said), an alternative mechanism is that someone actually believes the scaremongering narrative broadcast on TV, and is choosing driving to avoid the bogeyman^Wterrorists.
