WELFARE CHECKS SHOULD REQUIRE DRUG TESTS

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 people sitting on their bottoms, 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?
