that's all well and good if you know the measures being taken are actually deterrents. but if you're not doing any cost benefit analysis, then how you can you ever justify anything? how can you compare two mutually exclusive options? doesn't someone somewhere need to do some analysis to show that the outcome of the measure is as intended?

what if tire manufacturers didnt stop doing cost-benefit analysis, they just became much more careful in hiding it. and all the judge's penalty did was stir up millions of frivolous lawsuits trying to strike it megarich? shouldnt someone be looking at this type of thing?

so, i guess there are some people looking at this when it comes to air travel security, but i def never saw any published reports...
