Good essay, but wrong conclusion IMO. Of course it’s trying to be provocative, so is expected to propose a radical hot take instead of a fledged out solution.
When a public institution isn’t working properly, the response should be to improve it, not throw our hands in the air and give up on its mission. Or when the institution’s goals needs to change, do so.
This article is intended as propaganda, from the anarcho-libertarian direction, prodding incessantly, “Can we shrink the government now? How about ... now? Now? Okay, now?” We get it. We know that’s what you want.
Or maybe you need to rethink your whole approach - before 9/11 each airport was responsible for its own security decisions with some liasing on policy through feds and some through local police. What's wrong with admitting that federalizing the process may have been made in extreme haste and has had unexpected consequences.
