re: #112 Lidane

*sigh*

Ever since Rick Perry announced he wants to mandate drug tests for welfare and unemployment here in Texas my Republican FB friends keep posting about how great that is, because they work for their money so no one should get to live high on the hog on welfare for free.

They always conveniently skip the part where Perry would mandate those same drug tests for unemployment benefits too. Just wait until one of them gets laid off and has to be tested before they get the money they’re entitled to. I’m sure they’ll turn around and rant about bureaucrats and invasive government.

Every place that I worked from about 1987 to 2002 had a mandatory drug test as a condition for employment. Then I think somebody filed a lawsuit and suddenly these drug tests were ruled unconstitutional.
