its hard enough for the govt just to cut checks. how many times have they passed extensions this year? Good luck running an efficient drug screen.
some people may not like the dole going to the pusher. But some people dont like their money spent on needless wars, bonuses to AIG fat cats, etc.
Probably the best solution is for unemployed people to grow pot & sell it. That would save the govt billions.

yep, piss tests are easily passed, as they are every single day by truck drivers, teachers, doctors etc... LOL
hair and blood tests cost from $150 to $300 a person not counting all the other fees gov woiuld tack on, this would cost a hell of alot of money to test everyone who collects some form of handout. Also, once they fail, there would be mandatory re-testing and monitoring, this would make the cost of each person well over $1k or more and Im sure theyd find more things to charge for and it would be even more. The facilities, the mployees, the tests, we are talking about an entire new gov arm LOL
