What I do have a problem with is the distribution of my taxes to people who don't have to pass a urine test.
So, here is my question: 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 BUTT----doing drugs while I work.
I guess we could call the program "URINE OR YOU'RE OUT"!

I have been advocating that here in Indiana for years now....I have proposed a bill requiring all public servants to comply to a random drug and alcohole, yes even the police dept. and the firemen as well....It has been met with great opposition....The police and firemen with there great advertisements of being public heros has made them almost unapproachable....I do agree with you that anyone who takes money from tax payers should be drug free...
