Swell.. People who buy this are the same people who once said, "If you aren't doing anything wrong what do you have to fear?" I think we've seen the flaws in that arguement. One of the things that makes the United States great is the presumption of innocence. Our forefathers I am sure could not have imagined the technology available to government but they did have some experiences with invasive and crushing governmental powers but knew government had the power to quash even legal activities with it's heavy arm. It's a slippery slope. Is it okay to test without reason for high sodium levels? After all, if you use too much salt despite knowing the detrimental effects of high sodium, aren't you injuring yourself and therefor society by costing it more in health care costs? Kiss freedom good-bye ladies and gentlemen....while you are picking your arguments. Lynann!! ![]() ![]() ![]() |

I don't agree that recipients of assistance should be given a mandatory drug tested. That is a discriminatory practice in that it assumes everyone who needs assistance is a drug abuser and that usage was what created the need. While I completely understand the frustration involved, I also must add that the cash assistance is not usually the only assistance one gets. Recipients usually get food stamps, assistance in paying for daycare, as well as free or very low cost medical assistance. Most are eligible for assistance with housing, but it's harder to get and many do not take advantage of that benefit. Then, of course, there is the assistance in paying for school and/or finding a job. It is what you make of it. Public assistance is not meant to give anyone a cushy life, it's meant for survival and is meant to be temporary. And, yes, it is an absent parents responsibility to pay for the welfare of their child, but more often than not, it is tax payers who take on that responsibility. I've done this work for 25 years and I have to say that there have been times when my clients had more spendable income than I did. Being a single parent is not easy on most. ![]() ![]() other then the first two lines...I agree with you young lady...you see a urine test as discriminatory...I see it..as tough love...a form of shown responsibility... ![]() ![]() There, again, how much tough love do you give. You want them wearing ankle bracelets to be sure they are not spending the assistance on things we deem they shouldn't, IE., going to a bar? ![]() Oh, and TOUGH LOVE? Are we punishing these folks? Oh, and TOUGH LOVE? Are we punishing these folks? ...hardly...what you call punishment...I call tough love... ![]() |

I was off engaging in a week long naked, feminist, pagan ritual with like minded folks where we spent money recklessly, hated men, sneered at conservatives, made sacrifices to the gods of abortion, homosexuality, higher taxes and un-American liberal media.
When we weren't engaged in rituals we were plotting to corrupt children and ruin the country. Oh of course nights were spent having wanton liberal kinky sex. haha It was a nice vacation. |
