Imagine how much $$$ personal hygiene companies will make!
After seeing all those shiny metal cans at the airports that people are throwing their personal hygiene items into, I began to wonder. What will Homeland Security do with them? Toss them into the dumpsters?

Then I realized how much money these companies will make as a result of all of this. I saw people throwing whole tubes of toothpaste, bottles of lotion, etc. into those metal cans. You know darn well those people will just have to buy a new one once they get to their destination.

Convenient?

1. I think those people
should be reimbursed for their losses. Take it out of the Homeland Security budget.

6. It's our money anyway
I wouldn't mind if they used it to pay back these folks. That stuff isn't cheap. Every if they gave everybody $50.
It would be nice. Excuse me for dreaming big.

8. The proper thing to do would be to give it to the homeless, poor
and unemployed.
