Screen all politicians, first.

I’m surprised they didn’t exclude blacks and hispanics and gay people from this survey.....

Sounds like a solid plan to get the general public to trust the medical profession.

Said no one ever.

[Black Agnes]

Bill of rights? We don’t need no stinking bill of rights.

Who has the relative with the drug testing lab. That’s the question I’ve got.

[dsc]

Is this reasonable search, per the Constitution?

[Boomer]

By the way; the VA did this nonsense then the government would yank the right to own firearms away from the VA patients who tested positive. Now very few people trust the VA.

This is just another back door gun confiscation scheme.

[TomGuy]

screen all adult patients for illicit drug use

Okay. Then what?

Can't arrest them all -- there are way to many and most jails face overcrowding even now.

Where in the constitution does it say government has the right to control drugs?
If cocaine was $10 an ounce at the drug store our problems would be fewer.
I know of what I speak of, personally.

[VanShuyten]

Why stop there? Test for nicotine, alcohol and gunpowder residue.

[Karl Spooner]

A provision in the Affordable Care Act says that services recommended by the task force must be covered by insurance with minimal or no copayment.

They sure went out of their way to be considerate. Must be really nice people.

[Jeff Chandler]

At least the ones with the faded Grateful Dead stickers on their vans.

That’s one way to get people to quit using healthcare.

Would privacy protections protect drug users?

Screen all gay people for HIV mandatory

[Yaelle]

If you did use drugs recreationally, would you ever go to a doctor again if there was forced testing?

[wardaddy]

so we’re all on parole now huh....va fodase

I despise these bossy bastards.

> A national panel of health experts

I can only imagine the list of unprosecuted crimes by this rogue’s gallery.

[fwdude]

This is along the same lines as recommending EVERYONE over 13 get tested for HIV, even if healthy, celebrate lifestyles are apparent.

Misery loves company, and if the deviants can be grouped with others getting tested, they have a place to hide.
