So why dont the bums sucking off my taxes have to take a drug test to get thier welfare? It does! Let's drug test 10 million people at $40 per person (probably more since a doctor will do the testing) When you apply for a job, the employer pays. Which does make sense (as a drug user is more likely to steal and or cost an employer money somewhere down the line) I despise people like you. I have no drug testing in my job and I have to smoke daily to help from shaking because I have Parkinson's. Read up on medical MJ. |

It would not cost $40 per person if the state had a nurse to a lab tech set up for each county....Most people who do drugs and know that they will not pass it may not even take the test. Also, once someone fails, they should not be able to apply again for another 5 years. This would stop all those who have children just to get more. Deb |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 27991341 Mkes me sick!!!!!!!! Become a bum and go on welfare! Your problem SOLVED! Actually we should test not only the Welfare recipients but ALSO ALL GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS, EMPLOYEES, AND THEIR FAMILIES!! Let your kids use drugs? YOU LOSE YOUR GOVERNMENT JOB!! PERIOD!! You work for the government but your Wife has a bit of a Cocaine Habit? YOU LOSE YOUR GOVERNMENT JOB!! You work for the government and your dependent kid has a bit of a Marijuana Problem? YOU LOSE YOUR GOVERNMENT JOB!! *** IF YOU suck of the Public Tit in any way shape or form (welfare, job, military pension, government pension) then EVERYBODY in the household who you are supporting WITH GOVERNMENT MONEY should be tested, and YOU LOSE YOUR GOVERNMENT PAYMENTS if they test positive!! With so many working for the government anymore that would quickly bring our nation's drug problem under control, and would also get rid of a lot of the excess number of government employees/pensioniers that we are currently paying with our tax money!! |

Second unemployment and welfare is insurance. Third, please don't give into the fairness doctrine. You are being unfairly taxed to begin with. We were born and we didn't choose this government or its fucking laws. Lets make you take a drug test like a slave when you get into a car wreck. That industry is gov funded. Hey lets make you take a drug test when you go to the doctor for anything. That way we can deny you services if you are on un approved drugs. Its time to unleash freedom and your philosophy is not welcome in the new world. |

So why dont the bums sucking off my taxes have to take a drug test to get thier welfare? Supposing an applicant takes the drug test and turns up positive. I am fairly certain that person would first be offered help in the way of detox/rehab before being turned away. If that person successfully completes required program they would granted benefits under the stipulation that they adhere to some sort of therapy or program. If they cannot do this they will get nothing. That's pretty much the way it goes now. You can do into D.S.S., tell them you are a drug addict and they will pay for your rehab. I've known a couple of people that use rehabs like they have revolving doors. I guarantee you if you walked into the Department of Social Services right now you'll see a few people nodding. ..."The soul is dyed the color of its thoughts.

You have a constitutional right to not pursue employment at my business and may look for work elsewhere. Your choice.

I am extremely sorry about your disease and feel for you. What we have to remember though is that marijuana isn't the ONLY drug that comes from a plant in the ground: "Cocaine is extracted from the leaves of the Erythroxylum (coca) bush, which grows on the slopes of the Andes Mountains in South America." The effects of cocaine are far different from those of marijuana. People have abused the system for long in so many regards that people like yourself that need it unfortunately have to suffer. :( |

Drug testing would disqualify over half of the Poorasites from their handouts. Drug use is a huge reason for poverty, as people spend their disposable income on drugs, then have none left over for essentials. Enter their government. The enablers tax the producers to pay for the Poorasites existence. This gives the enablers job security. |

Ineptocracy- (in-ep-toc'-ra-cy) - a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers. |

Those on welfare are being given government assistance. They do not have a choice as to which government. They are also not employed by the government, so there is no liability. A fix to this would be to make the government liable for felony acts committed by those they assist as public monies would be used either directly or indirectly in the commission of a felony. That is not likely as it would be too expensive. |
