WELFARE SHOULD BE TIED TO PASSING DRUG TEST

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 rump 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?

I guess we could title that program, "Urine or Urout."
