ya know what I would be more pleased if you were fighting for a bill to drug test EVERY person and child receiving and applying for public assistance ! I have to be tested before EVERY JOB and I have to be clean to go to WORK to support WELFARE why should they not have to be clean to receive it ?

Re:"I have to be tested before EVERY JOB and I have to be clean to go to WORK to support WELFARE"
You seem to feel "staying clean" is a challenge. Hang in there buddy!
Some people don't have a choice. Many are single parents,others may be on public assistance because their unemployment ran out and they can't find work.
It seems that if I was to do drugs, beat women, have under age sex, kill someone then I could get all the free stuff that I want and never have to work.
All we ask is that people wanting help be required the same requirement (drug testing) that we endue to try and earn a living.
After 30 years of employment in my field and paying into Unemployment Insurance that entire 30+ years I find myself unemployed.
Drug test me? After paying for this insurance for 30 god damned years? You have the ARROGANCE to assume I do this because it's FUN.
Screw drug testing unemployment recipients. We should be drug testing the moronic legislators that created an environment where labor is treated like a bastard step child.
HEY 11:31--- i DONT THINK THE TOP POST THINKS IT'S A CHALLENGE TO STAY CLEAN i THINK U R WORRIED ABOUT BEING CLEAN.SOUNDS TO ME LIKE THEIR PROUD THEY DONT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT IT. CAN U SAY THE SAME ? AND TO ADDRESS THE NO CHOICE REASON EVEN BETTER YET TO TEST, IF YOU COME BACK DIRTY ,YOU LOSE JUST LIKE ALL US AMERICANS THAT ARE LIKE TO HAVE A JOB.THERE'S NO SHAME IN BEING CLEAN.SOOO I SAY THE WELFARE REC.'S SHOULD BE TOO !!! SORRY IF YA FEEL IT'S INFRINGES YOUR RIGHTS BUT IT'S MY MONEY I WORKED FOR THAT YOU WOULD BE GETTING AND I DONT SUPPORT DRUGS! THATS HOW IT SHOULD BE PERIOD. HAVE A NICE DAY !
