Seems only fair, but it's probably not PC.
West Virgina is working on (or has passed, I can't remember) a law requiring any person taking state assistance to agree to random drug testing.

A policy like that needs to be nation-wide. I'm tired of paying for some sh*tbum to sit at home and smoke crack all day while hard-working people work their tail off in hopes of keeping their job.

Drive down Blue Hills Ave. in Mattapan any day during the week and it's like a Sunday afternoon with all the people sitting on their porches drinking from paperbags or walking around the streets. The same could be said for 90% of people in the City of Springfield.

I can't imagine a policy like that would fly in a hard Left state like MA though.
