Urine test for social services?

Posted by Moonage on 07 Aug 2007 | Tagged as: Political Correctness

I just did a post on sending in the National Guard to solve our crime problem in Newark. Almost simultaneously I got an email that problably would put a serious dent in crime as well:

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 they see fit. In order to get that paycheck I am required to pass a random drug test, which I have no problem with.

What I do have a problem with is the distribution of my taxes to people who don’t have to pass the 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 sit on their butt using my taxes to get high.

Could you imagine how much money the state would save if people had to pass a urine test to get a public assistance check.

Pass on if you agree.

Consider it passed on.
