Probably thanks to the Institute of Justice's (a group of libertarian leaning badass lawyers) ongoing lawsuit, the US Deputy AG has suspended the DEA's organized crime operation at the nation's airports. When I say organized crime operation, I don't mean the DEA was investigating crime, they were doing the crime and stealing cash from travelers with no due process.

Something as stupid as if you bought your ticket within 48 hours of boarding would make you a target for warrantless searches and the seizing of your cash with no charges filed. Civil asset forfeiture is not only unconstitutional but incredibly immoral.

They really do run it like the mob would too...everyone gets their cut, from the confidential source airline employee who calls them when you buy a ticket too close to departure (has the DEA ever heard of a family emergency?), to the county/city, the state, and the feds at the top collect the most.
