Let's piss test welfare recipients. But ONLY if we also piss test anyone drawing a dime of federal funding: social security recipients, those on Medicare/Medicaid, anyone receiving a farm subsidy, anyone drawing a retirement check from the government (military, clerical, whatever) anyone who's getting a dime of taxpayer cash from the government.<br /> Now, you got the piss thing all worked out, how long before you hear the right screaming about unreasonable search and seizure when their moms and dads have to find a clinic, pay for their own tests, and then fight false positive results?<br /> This is just one more way for assholes to stereotype folks who are 'beneath' them. The testing would be too cumbersome, too expensive, would save far less than predicted, and in the end would punish the children of parents who might have smoked a joint in the past three months. When most of the people drawing assistance have minor children living in poverty, why would you want the kids to suffer for the sins of the fathers? <br /> Anyone who thinks drug testing is "working out" hasn't seen it in action. It's selective enforcement, aimed at middle-class and poor people, and is nothing more than selfishness on parade.squatlohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00041016017342355678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7875411665185029467.post-1363564184707804192012-01-02T09:58:57.758-05:002012-01-02T09:58:57.758-05:00Based on that reasoning they will go with none bei...<i>Based on that reasoning they will go with none being tested.</i><br />Exactly, that is the point.

The guy managing my crypto vault testing positive for <br />THC. Naturally, I cried foul. Well, the commander expected me to do so and we did a "commander's directed urine-analaysis that very day - another postive - then, had it verified by two separate labs -<br />positive.<br />The man had 17 years in service and was discharged three years from retirement. Okay, the AF said, don't smoke dope. So, as bad as it was - I blamed him and not the system.<br />Here is the rub - where does this shit stop? A kid fucked up in the head from Bush's war in Iraq can't get help from the VA because he smokes dope with this ninetee year old who is fucking his brains out and keeping him out of jail? <br />My brother gets SSI - a chronic alcoholic - they going to give him a breathalizer?<br /><br />Take from the poor and give to the rich - that is the GOP plan - the more they can cut people programs the more the bastards can cater to their rich patrons and buddies at the country clubs.<br /><br />fuck em...<br /><br />Have a happy...<br /><br /><br />Bests,<br /><br /><br />RonSargehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14892211119418623595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7875411665185029467.post-39842158390552179392011-12-31T12:12:10.291-05:002011-12-31T12:12:10.291-05:00We live in one country; the same rules for everybo...We live in one country; the same rules for <b>everybody</b> makes sense.
