Urine test

Urine Test -- This guy has a point! This was written by a construction
worker in Fort McMurray . Read on . . .

I work, they pay me. I pay my taxes, and the government distributes my
taxes as it sees fit. In order to earn that pay check, I work on a rig site for a Fort McMurray construction project.
At any time I am required to pass a random urine test, with which I have no problem. HOWEVER, 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? 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 sit on their butt, drink beer and smoke dope. Could you imagine how much money this country would save if people had to pass a urine test to get a public assistance check?

I also pay my health care Premiums.
In order to pay those premiums i need to be an American.
HOWEVER, what I do have a problem with is the distribution of my taxes and my Premiums , to Peoples that are not even trying to be or speak Americans .
Shouldn't one have to be an American in this country to get a free Health Care ?
because I have to be one to pay my taxes and my Premiums.

It sure would help Moose, so would requiring the same urine tests for those who tax and re-distribute my money. I wonder just how many could pass? Layoutshooter

States are considering it. Hope it passes.
States consider drug tests for welfare recipients

Shooter, you are very funny. I bet that bill would not pass. Who would vote on somethig putting them out of a job?

Yea, they would NEVER go for that, would they? Shoot, They don't want you to know just how messed up they are. They also believe that they are better then you and therefor exempt themselfs from such mundain things. Layoutshooter

And that would be the same reason they don't raise taxes on alcohol beverages. To many of our government officials drink, so why would they raise taxes on something they buy in abundance. And you can't say they don't, because they have to be drunk to pass some of these laws.
