Our current criminal justice system has no provision for restorative justice, in which an offender confronts the damage they have done and tries to make it right for the people they have harmed.

When the TSA was established, it was never envisioned that it would become a huge, unwieldy bureaucracy which was soon to grow to 67,000 employees.

My forces are not enfeebled, I find no decay in my strength my provisions are not cut off, I find no abhorring in mine appetite my counsels are not corrupted nor infatuated, I find no false apprehensions to work upon mine understanding and yet they see that invisibly, and I feel that insensibly, the disease prevails.
