Can't quit your job? Then quit complaining. :-P

Ah see, so an employer can request a drug test for any employee at any time but we can't test a welfare recipient who may show signs of drugs abuse? Oh, before you argue about the "signs" don't get one me because the police can pull you over in any state and search you because you may show them... they're already in place. I can't believe weed was mention so much either, but how can we not have the option to test somebody receiving government money if they show signs of real drug abuse? Anyway, some good points by all but for those of you talking about smoking weed while on welfare; how? How'd you get the stuff if you need government money to help keep you afloat? Grow lights, good soil... it's expensive even when you grow it yourself. Anyway, off topic, I still think we need the option to test people for competency before paying them to be a layabout (no I'm not saying all welfare recipients are layabouts so if you were planning on putting those words in mouth you can back off now). :)
