In that bill Rubio ought to add the requirement for mandatory drug tests to qualify for food stamps - or any public assistance, for that matter.

Why should the taxpayers provide some of these people "free" food if they are spending their other income on drugs? Let them make the choice.

Because then we’d be obligated to pay for their drug tx and pay for placing their kids in foster care.
