In responce to Florida's Supreme Court ruling on drug testing welfare recipients

 The overwhelming majority of welfare recipients are not on drugs...The court based their decision on a Government study that tested 4000+ applicants and less than 150 individuals failed... Furthermore,and MOST importantly,the Court upheld the 5th amendment..which is great news!...Being forced to testify against yourself...and having to submit to a drug test without probable cause or suspicion is a violation of our RIGHTS....If this was allowed to stand,Not only would it be a huge waste of our tax dollars, The Poor ol' Governor and his wife are out of millions of dollars in profits from Drug test sales to the State.(She owns a part of the Company slated to supply the tests!)....Those of you who work hard and pay your taxes(Like Myself) should take another look at your stance on this issue...ask yourself whats next if drug tests are allowed without suspicion?...a test to get a DL?...a test to apply for a Mortgage?...a test to register to vote? How about a DUI/Drug test checkpoint?....It is not worth kicking a few addicts off of welfare...They will clean up or eventually get busted(Proven Guilty) and lose their benefits...http://www.palmbeachpost.com/.../gov-rick-scotts.../nLq8f/            http://www.nytimes.com/.../no-savings-found-in-florida...
