To the Editor,
First we alienated illicit drug users from a large portion of the job
market through random drug testing. Now we take away their drivers licenses
further restricting their ability to get or hold a job. Then we can say
"Aha see, drug users are unemployed free-loaders who don't want to work or
be productive members of society."
That's like denying a man an education then saying he is stupid.
