Texas advances bill to require drug screening for welfare

[Wolferz]

Some of you seem to be assuming that welfare provides enough money to actually support a drug habit. Illicit drugs are a tad expensive and a welfare check doesn't come close to paying that bill. Or nearly any other bill to boot.
So, do the next best thing to get the leeches burned off the backside of your tax money. Make a blanket accusation that all welfare recipients use drugs therefore make them pay for a drug test to get their measly $200.00 a month and laugh at them while they shiver and starve in the dark. Then order them to stop smoking the crack, pot or whatever else they're blowing your tax money on before lending them a hand.
Continue with your delusion of a smaller tax bill if all the leeches were burned off tomorrow. It ain't gonna happen.
And we wonder why our prisons are overflowing. Incarceration begins to look very inviting to a starving, freezing man or woman with no bed. Can you say offsetting remedy that costs twice as much?
