Mandatory drug screening and regulations for Government assistance recipients.
1. Mandatory drug screening for any person(s) receiving any form of Government assistance.
This should be common sense. I have to pass a drug test for employment so I can be taxed and support our Government assistance programs. Recipients at the very least need to be subjected to the same drug screening. Not just once, but randomly as long as they are receiving benefits.
2. Government assistance recipients need to have a limit on the amount of assistance they are able to receive. 3 months, 6 months, etc. Government assistance should be short term and not a crutch for lazy unmotivated people. If after a year MAX, they have not gained any type of employment to support them self, it is their own fault.
3. The type of items available for welfare recipients should be regulated.
I have seen too many times someone in front of me at the grocery store holding a $300 Coach bag, $700 iPhone; putting lobster, shrimp, steak, etc on the cashiers platform, and then using an EBT card to pay for it. This is complete bullshit. EBT should provide the minimum amount of substance to survive, not a feast for the neighborhood.
These articles listed above should be common sense. Am I the only one that thinks that?
Natural selection should come in to play if a person is unable to, after a certain amount of time, establish any kind of life for them self. What we have is a system designed for lazy people to mooch off of.
Please put an end to this.
