The Urine Test

I work on a rig site for a Fort McMurray construction project. I pay my taxes, and the government distributes my taxes as it sees fit. At any time, I am required to pass a random urine test with which I have no problem.

HOWEVER, what I do have a problem with is the distribution of my taxes to people who don't have to pass a urine test. Shouldn't one have to pass a urine test to get a welfare check since I have to pass one to earn it for them?

Please understand that I have no problem with helping people get back on their feet. But on the other hand, I do have a problem with helping people who just sit on their fanny, drink beer and smoke dope. Could you imagine how much money this country would save if people had to pass a urine test to get a public assistance check?

The blurb above was written by a construction worker. The fellow has a very good point.
