- godelski 4y agoTakes at least, in many cases, provide a public good. The leaky bucket (not sure if the bucket even can hold water at this point though) still transports water. The TSA does not provide any service to the public. On the other hand, they provide substantial inconvenience, drive up costs, and end up killing more people (since driving is more risky than flying). I get the joke you're making, but let's not pretend that taxes are the same thing. They are highly inefficient but the TSA has negative efficiency.
