I have to take a drug test for employment to pay for welfare recipients. I don't begrudge anyone who needs it but I believe that they should also take a drug test to receive the benefit. I think our tax money would go further for those that need it if the druggies were not abusing it. NO TEST............NO CHECK

the momentum behind this is honestly wild and it shows how many people feel the same way about fairness. im really glad this is finally picking up steam because it proves we are not alone in wanting change.

just saw we hit 100 signatures. honestly didnt think this would get much traction but i guess a lot of people feel the same way about where the money goes.

we are getting so close to the first hundred signatures and it would be awesome to hit that mark before the day is out. if you can send this link to a few people you know it would go a long way in showing people we are serious about this.

Finally some common sense. If I have to pass one to work, they should have to pass one to get my tax money.

Its just not right that hard working folks have to jump through hoops while others just get handed money. drug test them all.
