Want welfare pass a drug test, want food stamps pass a drug
test, want unemployment pass a drug test.
Governor Scott Walker wants to make that law. Guess what he isn’t the only one talking
about it, twenty other states are talking about enacting drug testing for
welfare, unemployment and food stamps. I
think this is something I can stand behind.
I look at it this way, you have money for the illegal drugs, right? Why not use your money that you were going to
be spending on the drugs for food, shelter and clothing? I spend my money on those things, and my
budget doesn’t leave enough money for me to use illegal drugs even if I wanted
to. Doesn’t a lot of this boil down to supply
and demand? Or even the basics that I learned
in economics class back in high school, wants are unlimited and resources are
scarce? Meaning we budget for the things
that we need, save for the things we want, and borrow for the luxuries.
