I don't understand this argument.

How else do you presume I visit family 6.5K miles away without getting on a plane?

Oh geez.

If you want to visit your family, do it. But you can't complain about them having you over a barrel if you voluntarily lay over said barrel.

Used to be people protested, and accepted that the results may be less than comfortable, and might be a bit inconvenient.

I didn't complain about them having me over the barrel.

Still, one can fly without supporting the TSA.

In the end, one could never fly again, just drive everywhere yet a portion of their taxes will still make its way to the TSA. So I could just as easily argue, if you pay taxes, you support the TSA, or if you pay taxes, you support the wars in the Middle East which our tax dollars go to.

now you're talking!

When we can get at least 10mil Americans to agree, we can begin a tax revolt.
