Adapted from an e-mail I received today:
TO PEE or NOT TO PEE
I think this should be a "law of the land". Guess it's probably not 'politically correct' and would be insensitive and probably fall into some definitions of racial discrimination. But let's give it a whirl anyway:
TO PEE OR NOT TO PEE.
I have a job.
I work and they pay me for the work I do.
I pay my taxes & the government distributes my taxes as it sees fit.
In order to get that paycheck, in my case, I am required to pass a random urine test
(with which I have no problem). I don't have a problem that a urine test is also required when I apply for work comp or disability.
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 don't really have a 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.
Can you imagine how much money each state would save if people had to pass a urine test to get a public assistance check?
I guess we could call the program "URINE OR YOU'RE OUT"!
P.S. Just a thought, all politicians should have to pass a urine test too!
