Got this email today. Makes to much sense to become a law. Although I would love to see some politicians bring up this issue.
Email below:
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 it sees fit. In order to get that paycheck, I am required to pass a random urine test with which I have no problem. What I Do have a problem with is the distribution of my taxes to people who Don't have to pass a 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 sitting on their ASS, doing drugs, while I work. . . . Can you imagine how much money the state would save if people had to pass a urine test to get a public assistance check ?
Pass this along if you agree or simply delete if you don't. Hope you all will pass it along, though . . . Something has to change in this country -- and soon!

Wow..I agree with Jim.
I am sure the response will be, we would need to raise taxes to cover the cost to test all the people getting welfare, etc..

actually illudes could be right if used in a Norwegian context or something like that..... maybe if there was a Viking involved...
