I agree Rob, I understand the testing if you have done something to warrant 
 it, 
but the testing to get a job etc, is essentially being guilty until proven  
innocent.
Perhaps doing as  Bev suggests and start pushing testing for everyone  
receiving a 
govt assistance check will rile the left enough to throw out the whole  
thing. All or
none.

Why should anyone have to 'prove' that they did  not use illegal drugs 
in the past (whatever time they show up for)? Why  should anyone have 
to provide a sample of anything so someone (or thing in  the case of a 
government body) can use it against them?

If anyone  has to submit their body to be tested for illegal drug use 
it ought to be  the whole legislative & executive branches of the 
government, the  people (and their staff) who make the laws.

I can see testing to see if  someone is under the influence of 
something "right now" because of an  accident or some other  mishap.
