Well for Pete's sake I should hope so. WELFARE IS NOT A CAREER OPPORTUNITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...............PREACH IT!!!
It is a career for my deadbeat worthless scumbag of a brother who has never held a job for more than 2 weeks at a time and gone years and years without having one at all.
If drug testing had been mandatory when he was 20 the state could have saved a whole lot of money over the past 32 years not supporting his worthless ass. And it has been a lot. Multiple Drug rehabs which never worked. A year's worth of interferon treatment to cure Hep C. Food stamps, wasted votech training, housing payments etc etc. Add to that that he gets free medical care at ER's, has generated hospital bills in the hundreds of thousands for multiple multi-day/month hospital stays due to various preventalbe causes all of which contribute to higher medical costs for the rest of us and it wouldn't surprise me that the total cost to society to keep his worthless, oxygen wasting self alive hasn't run into the millions. He knows how to work/milk the system and he does.
Personal responsibility is not in his vocabulary. He is a poster child for the doctrine of government dependence.
