Urine Testing for Public Assistance?

Dear President Obama: My employer pays me for my hard work. In order to get that paycheck, I am required to pass a random urine test now and then. I pay my taxes and the government distributes my taxes as it sees fit. I have no problem with the urine testing, but what I do have a problem with is my hard-earned, easily-taken taxes being given away by politicians to people who don't have to pass a urine test. Shouldn't one have to pass a urine test to get a welfare check? I mean, I have to pass one to earn it for them! Please understand, I have no problem with helping people get back on their feet, I really don't. I do, on the other hand, have a problem with helping someone who sits around on their lazy ass doing drugs while I work my ass off to support their lifestyle. Can you imagine how much money the government and taxpayers like me would save if people had to pass a urine test to get a public assistance check? Thanks, Pissed Off in Chicago P.S. - Mr. Obama, you have access to highly sensitive information and you're in position of immense responsibility. Do you have to take a random drug test? Just curious.

Video: Obama's Stimulus Dysfunction

If you thought Bush spent like a drunken sailor, know this: Obama's proposal for even more money for the non-stimulating "stimulus" will throw money down like a meth whore in Reno. The investment will be about as well spent, too. Watch the must-see video below for an explanation that even Barney Frank could understand. President Obama wants Congress to dramatically expand the burden of government spending. This CF&P Foundation mini-documentary explains why such a policy, based on the discredited Keynesian theory of economics, will not be successful. Indeed, the video demonstrates that Obama is proposing - for all intents and purposes - to repeat Bush's mistakes. Government will be bigger, even though global evidence shows that nations with small governments are more prosperous. (Source) CNB RSS Feed
