Comments on: Get Cash Assistance From Florida — Take A Drug Test First? http://www.northescambia.com/2011/03/get-cash-assistance-from-florida-take-a-drug-test-first Local News for Molino, Bratt, McDavid, Century, Walnut Hill, Cantonment Wed, 22 Apr 2026 13:41:26 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: This country http://www.northescambia.com/2011/03/get-cash-assistance-from-florida-take-a-drug-test-first/comment-page-1#comment-314348 This country Thu, 07 Jan 2016 14:12:57 +0000 http://www.northescambia.com/?p=48894#comment-314348 It is sad that people abusing the system take away from people who actually need help. What about the single mom who cant afford $25.00 to take the drug test to receive assistance. Due to my knowledge you have to pay for the test before you can even be considered to receive any funds. What about the women with kids who was in a domestic violence situation with no money. I mean I understand that people abuse the system but sometimes people just need some help to get on their feet. I agree that a drug test is a great way to help eliminate abuse of the system, but when people actually need the help they cant get it due to these new rules.

Drug test should be taken by everyone at random. Citizens do not want there tax dollars to supply drug users but in fact tax dollars supports a pointless war for our troops, abortion etc. Drugs have been here forever and will remain. You can't control how an individual chooses to live. If drugs benefits them, then so be it. Every organization, business, company is government supported.

It really upsets me when I see this one couple that have 3 children and are getting $500 a month in food stamps. This same couple inherited $100,000.00 last year and are still receiving them!! At least once a month they have a dinner get together and serve either crab legs or rib eye steaks to several of their friends and they do not buy them on sale!!! I also know that they still do cocaine and smoke weed. Now please tell me why they should continue to get food stamps, free dental, free medical etc!! It is long overdue!!

Drugs are against the law! Test all of our citizens. No one should be against testing! Drugs are against the law! Test public and private employees! Test welfare recipients! Military personnel! People who have drivers licenses! People who attend college! Test homeless people. Test Medicare, Social security recipients and military retirees. They are all on government programs! Test 'em. Test 'em all! Drugs are illegal and dangerous. Every good citizen should be willing to line up at the testing centers at least once a month. It's unamerican not to support drug testing for everyone! It's Unchristian! Let's catch 'em all, fire them, take them off welfare, and then lock them up! It's time we started acting like Americans again. Anyone who doesn't go along with the majority should be ostracized or removed. C'mon folks! Let's take our country back! And by the way...my neighbor sometimes shoots off fireworks. Shouldn't he be tested??!! Test everyone! Drugs are against the law! Test all of our citizens. No one should be against testing! Drugs are against the law! Test public and private employees!

If you can afford to buy drugs then you probably dont require public assistance. Added benefit, it would reduce the amount of folks on public assistance and make it easier for the people that really need it to get it. Shorter lines, less waiting, less paperwork for employees.
