This comes from the same blog: “... too many of your T.S.A. workers are just power-hungry morons.”
...
Still, it is not in the American DNA to enjoy taking orders from government employees. In December, in a survey by The Associated Press of public attitudes toward 12 federal agencies, the T.S.A. and the Internal Revenue Service tied for second place as the two most disliked, behind only the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
(The T.S.A. and I.R.S. are, of course, agencies where Americans and government sometimes meet head-to-head in dispute. Widespread public conflict with the Defense Department or the Justice Department, for example, would probably have changed the rankings.)
