Think about hospitals, every time there is a medical error, the family is going to demand that the doctors and nurses on duty be drug tested and if anything shows up, they will sue both the doctors and the hospital. It will be the same for oil refineries and other jobs that require a clear head.

Does this happen now with the legal mind-altering drug alcohol? If not, what reason is there to think it will happen with any other legal mind-altering drug?

I am sure that it does, but alcohol can be smelled on the breath of the doctors and nurses. It also happens with prescription drugs that doctors and nurses have access to and they are often caught. Legalized marijuana just adds one more problem to the list. You can be sure that hospitals will start doing random drug testing, if they don’t already.
