    I work 40 to 70 hrs a week and I had to take a Drug Test so I can get "paid" and I am sick and tired of these people sucking up all the free money and benifits they can get.Little do they know they aren't free...Myself and all the other hard working pay for them by working 40 to 70 hrs a week.Maybe someone can tell me the benifits of them being able to purchase all the soda,chips and other junk food they can consume.Ever heard of W.I.C.???Let them buy only foods with some nutrition and give them thier own lines in the store... I am in a hurry to get to work with my two items stuck behind them with a cart overflowing oh and a bath would not hurt them

    I feel that if you need to take a drug test to get a job, then you should have to take a drug test to receive money from the people that are paying into it. I am sick of people sitting on their butts and just collect and then turn the food stamps into money for drugs..That is happening more then people realize..they have figured out a way to beat the system...

    There should be a list of approved foods that is used for food stamps. Crab legs,lobster and other high end foods should not be on that list.

    There was a time I needed some assistance and was greatful. I agree with the petition 100%! Im a single mom working 2 jobs to support myself but I can't get health insurance. Then I see many people in my hometown abusing drugs and getting EVERYTHING free! Where is the rationalization in this?

    I'd like to add that I feel the following should be added to this bill: If a welfare or unemployment recipient fails a drug test and is the current legal guardian of any minors, that those minors be removed from their care and placed in a healthier and safer environment until their former legal guardian tests clean 3 consecutive times. This would ensure the children are not left without food and proper care.

    I am a believer in random drug testing. This petition is a good idea. But I also think that the schools should be checked without warning. Students, and all the staff and it should also happen within all school boards. Supervision, maintenance, bus drivers. There should be no exceptions.

    I too was on welfare many years ago and if they would have done drug testing way back then I would not have minded in the least. I had nothing to hide back then, if they don't want to be tested then they should go get a job.
