I asked some people at a drug testing facility once if they drug tested those doing the testing...The answer was no, accompanied by lots of “How dare you ask that” looks on their faces.

They started drug testing the military about half-way through my time in. I don’t recall any officers being tested, but maybe I just didn’t know about it.

Why? Why your constant posting of items bashing Walker?

I know you have an immense crush on Palin, but her day has come and gone.

Walker is very, very viable and impressive to true conservatives.

Because I...like you...am free to work elsewere if we dont want to comply with employer rules.

And I shouldnt have to tell you what you already know.....any fool can pee in a cup....our industry is chock full of them...

Drug tests only catch the stupid or un prepared.

You can also smoke crack on friday night and pee clean on monday morning....

Testing is pointless.

How often will they be drug tested? Who pays for the tests? What happens if the test is positive?

I was drug tested in the Army several times and many times for jobs since then. Where were my 4th Amendment rights?

Look....the topic is drug testing people on welfare....the federal courts always strike it down...

Passing such laws are a waste of time.

Dont try and make this argument something it isnt....

I said it was a good idea...it also will get slapped down hard.

I have to test for work....even though the testing is useless....it only catches the stupid....

They would be better off giving an IQ test.

Non sequitor,

You surrender certain rights when you join the military....and if you dont like the rules of an employer....quit.

Why are you trying to crab walk the argument into something else?

Drug testing for welfare gets shot down every time....no matter how much you might protest.

I have to drug test for work...including randoms...

I mean really.....it’s like you’ve never heard of synthetic urine....in the trade we call them boilermaker bottles....LOL.

So for 30 bucks...anyone can beat a drug test....that makes testing kinda pointless....yes?

Or would the next step be a requirement that People getting welfare be strip searched before they are tested?

Calling the testing pointless, and pointing out the federal courts will shoot it down....is NOT support for people using drugs to recieve benefits.

On another thread it was mentioned that the arena would be financed two-thirds by private party and other third would be a twenty year bond that would be paid for out the funds[taxes] received when pro athletes visit Wisconsin.

Closer to half. The state is putting up $220 million, the owners are putting up $150 million, and Herb Kohl is putting up $100 million.

So?

Get your representatives to pass a law requiring it......so a federal judge can stike it down....LMAO...

Oh wait....legistlators are also exempt....LOL

If you want to smoke pot that bad....figure out a way around it....or just be happy, whip your dick out...and pee in a cup for a job.

In other words he hasn't thought that far ahead.

I used to be a worker in that system. Somehow the unemployment office was tasked with training AFDC/TANF and SNAP recipients in job seeking skills. I was transferred out of helping veterans to doing that because I had once worked in a welfare-related program called PROMISE JOBS which is an acronym.
