Unproduced Sketch: TSA Basic Human Decency Program

I wrote this shortly after the TSA launched Pre-Check and Global Entry. Since there have been far more damning human rights abuses committed by the government, making this seem a little frivolous. At the same time, I think I still stand by all this. I still don’t have pre-check in what is probably the most pointless protest ever. It only makes my life more difficult, but I hate that the program even exists. It seems to me to only widen class divides in the country, and makes it less likely that conditions in the regular line will ever improve. The only power I had was to whine about it in a sketch… and then the sketch didn’t get produced! Well, here it is now!
