We've had a lot of good discussions in here lately, why not keep the ball rolling.

I just started reading about these airport full body scanners. They seem like a pretty big invasion of privacy, and I've read about health concerns too. Nothing is going to happen though, the government will continue to make things like travelling by air stricter and stricter.

It seems like people need to say enough is enough, but what to do? My first thought is boycott air travel. My second thought is, if that happens and they get into financial trouble, the government will bail them out with your money.

Watching a fox news clip on youtube one of the guests commented that the terrorists want to use the plane as the weapon. Well the government wants to use fear as a weapon. They can use it to take away freedoms, and what do "the people" do about it?

Anyways this isn't really a well put together post, just putting it out there though.
