Drug Test

Thanks go to Darlene for this one. I agree totally.


URINE TEST (I sure would like to know who wrote this one! They deserve a HUGE pat on the back! This one has been around for awhile but it is still good reading.)

I DO HAVE TO PASS A URINE TEST FOR MY JOB..... BUT I AGREE 100%

Like a lot of folks in this state, I have a job. I work, they pay me. I pay my taxes and the government distributes my taxes as it sees fit. In order to get that paycheck, I am required to pass a random urine test with which I have no problem.

What I do have a problem with is the distribution of my taxes to people who don't have to pass a urine test. Shouldn't one have to pass a urine test to get a welfare check because I have to pass one to earn it for them?

Please understand, I have no problem with helping people get back on their feet. I do, on the other hand, have a problem with helping someone sitting on their BUTT, doing drugs, while I work. Can you imagine how much money the state would save if people had to pass a urine test to get a public assistance check ?

My note:
Well maybe the State wouldn't save anything because they would have to redirect the funds for drug rehabilitation, but still it would be for something more positive.
