GOVERNMENT FINALLY GETS IT RIGHT WITH DRUG TESTING

A lot of people seem upset about the new law requiring potential
welfare recipients to pay for drug testing before they can be
approved. What these complainers don't realize is that the
poverty-stricken have had it too easy for far too long.

The government is finally doing the right thing by assuming that every
single one of them is guilty of using illicit drugs unless they are
able to prove themselves innocent.

The idea that we are all innocent until proven guilty is antiquated
and needs to be done away with anyway. Luckily, we are now seeing a
reversal of that unfortunate belief, and this new drug testing law is
merely the most recent example. Arizona's tough new immigration law
assumes all people of possibly foreign origin are in this country
illegally unless they can prove otherwise at any time.

The Patriot Act has for years allowed the government to spy on any
American citizen for any reason at any time without the necessity to
provide evidence. Again, it is an assumption of guilt until the
accused can demonstrate otherwise.

Hopefully, the next step is to require people to show tax statements
before they can benefit from emergency services such as the police and
fire departments. America is finally waking up!
