I say they have to have a clean test each week before they get paid.

forget random- test them all.

I also think that in order to recieve benefits, women have to be on birth control.

I also think that they should be put to work. have them sweep streets, paint buildings, pick up litter, and work in daycares for the people on cleanup. whatever.
I like your thinking, but forced sterilization and birth control have already been held unconstitutional. The forced work thing wouldn't work in chicago. Too many pols' family members would lose their high-paid street sweeping jobs.

The Louisiana state legislature passed a measure recently to randomly drug test (up to 20%) of welfare recipients. It was shot down by the state senate.

I find it insane that workers/taxpayers in almost any workplace are subject to random drug tests to keep our jobs, yet those receiving the charity from our hard work are under no such obligation.

What do you think ?
After careful consideration, I support the Senate rejection on grounds that the measure would be found unconstitutional per the following:

(a) If Louisiana State had passed a measure requiring all residents to submit to random drug testing, it would be considered a violation of S&S.

(b) Having applied for or accepted state aid does not relinquish the basic liberties afforded by the Constitution.

(c) Having applied for or accepted state aid is insufficient as probable cause.
