Hmm, I posted a reply to this earlier, but it got lost in the ether I suppose. To summarize, I support the testing with the caveat that a positive drug test does not result in expulsion from the welfare system, but a referral to treatment/counseling/rehab.
This should be followed up with a re-test. A second positive means you are out of the system until you test clean. If you aren't willing to kick a drug habit, or at least try, then why should you expect other people to pay for your food. Fuck that.
This is still a much more liberal policy than most employers. As an employee, I would expect that a positive drug test would result in immediate termination.
