Amazing to see the support for the War on drUgS.
Test em if they work and test em if they don't. BUT TEST em.
That has the full support of some here.
no wonder Ron Paul has such a hard time.
Folks just do not understand Liberty.

There is such rampant abuse with the system. A friend used to visit a convenience store daily, and always at the beginning of the month, it was always packed. He asked the owner one day why that was and he told him it was because it was when the welfare checks showed up. People would come in and buy booze, cigarettes and lotto tickets.
Look, I'm on your side in that I don't like drug testing. But I don't like it because I like to partake in a smoke here and there. I simply avoid employers that drug test. And I don't think that partaking in a smoke outside of my job effects my job performance one bit. But how can you say that your argument is on the side of liberty when your argument violates the right of the property owner?
If they get rich playing the Lotto, then they are off welfare. If they get sick and die early from cigarettes and alcohol, they are off welfare. What is your problem, Cowlesy?
Me, I would take any job that comes and testing as well. I'm mercenary like that. and have been out of work 5 years.
I oppose it just the same , on principle.
It's just wrong. I am disheartened by the support for it here though.

I may be hard to work for by some people, so be it.
When I had a toothache, he made a home remedy that took my pain from screaming maniacal pain down to manageable, put me in his car and took me to a dentist. Had the tooth pulled.
And you know, I'd have no problem with that at all. Even if it was some 'illegal' currently substance. It really doesn't matter to me that is not drug abuse, that is a medicinal purpose.
I am against abuse and addiction, of any sort, like I said gaming is a big problem as well. I am just as much against people that go to the doctor for every pimple and bruise.
More bureaucracy != less bureaucracy.
As someone else said: two wrong don't make a right. Welfare is a corrupt system, instead of trying to drug test them (which won't work), why not limit how much they can get and cut them off completely for good.
but I wonder how many would test if they weren't getting tax breaks and/or subsidies for testing and/or if it weren't required by law (as it is for some professions?)
Florida Bill Forcing Welfare Drug Tests
If you are living on the teet of government, except this, I applaud it. I want as little of my money wasted as possible. While at it test for other things too.
maybe enough people will feel offended by it they will get jobs and stop living off big mama govt.
