The GE (Global Entry) program costs $100 - 15 more for the same time frame (5 years) and is certainly worth it for the return from a foreign country speeding you back in
in almost the same speed you left it. Yes it is amazing how the uninitiated can screw up the TSA Pre Ck but then that is probably a good thing - these droids (terrorists) are
not the ones you were looking for - they are too much lemming like to outsmart the system !
