Travel is more than a trip to some delightful place. Travel forms us, teaches us, tests us. This blog explores everything from travel tips, deals, and experiences. My life revolves around travel as a travel host for a wholesale travel club as well as an independent sales rep for the club & as a certified employee vacation benefits specialist for companies.

TSA TRUSTED TRAVELER PROGRAM
The USA Travel Association is strongly suggesting the TSA put a "trusted traveler" program in place, but popular opinion is that unless congress steps in and demands it, don't expect it to happen. Actually, George W. Bush tried to get just such a program in place and was shut down by congress. Maybe congress needs to hear your voice. What I've read leaves me with mixed feelings; I can see fingerprints, even footprints, but our tax returns? How do our tax returns and credit scores relate to whether or not we are terrorists? I could see asking for jail records and even a mental health exam, but tax returns? What are your thoughts on what should be required to be labeled a "trusted traveler"?
