WHY??? Senate Tosses out Welfare/Drug Testing Bill!

[charliepapa]

Republican John LaBruzzo says random screening would help break the cycle of addiction among welfare recipients. But critics say it is inaccurate - and potentially racist - to assume that people on welfare use more drugs than the general population.

RACIST??? if ALL recipients are tested, how is that racist? what a crock. what a bunch of spineless weasels we have in the state senate. the only explanation could be fear of retaliation from their voter base, which is sad because that means they think they all represent more drug addicts on welfare than taxpayers!

Hell, all working people who collect checks and work for bigger corporations are subject to drug screens anytime. Just a few more years it will not pay to work, thank you, you liberal bastard politicians, go have another sex session with your media buddies, thats all I got to say bout that !!!

 

[03protege]

That's just crazy. RACIST?!?

I think you called it though, no one wants to jeprodize their careers being our lifetime leaders.

 

[olivs260]

Wouldn't the racist ones be the ones assuming that all welfare recipients are black?

 

[operator223]

the problem is that the receivers of welfare and foodstamps VOTE !! thats the problem. politicians are in it for the money and power, that's all. I dont see too many standing up and doing what's right !!

too many of these lying filthy theivin cockroachs forgot whom their employer is --> We The People !!!!

 

[tactical723]

Lets not step on anyone's toes now !! Racist, there are just as many or more of white welfare on the govt tit hooked on drugs, this is not a racist issue, its common sense !!!

 

[oleheat]

They need to make up their minds. How can they claim that assuming people on welfare use more drugs than the general population is "racist"-

.....and then say crime in the poor community flourishes largely due to the fact that they are.....poor??

 

[some_goat]

Why would u wanna loose some voters , or try to pick some up . Thats the only reason i see for them dropping it . Spineless ***** , i had high hopes when i saw this in the news a while back .

 

[DuckYou]

It happens every year.

 

[Hitman]

wow made my stomach sour....

 

[stancel]

He did what just about all politicians do. He did the math, determined what would most likely get him the votes to continue his career of sucking on the tax payers tit, and voted accordingly.

 

[USMC-Deano]

Wow, what a group of cowards and racists. Just what olivs24 said, it's racist that the libs assume that all welfare recipients are black. I guess there are no white people on welfare, huh?

 

[jgreco15]

The "Voters" are multiplying at a rate much faster than the "taxpayers" can keep up with. Black, white, purple; it doesn't matter. As long as people with good morals and a hard work ethic are out numbered by those who want to take the easy route, there is nothing else we can do except work harder to reverse it. We have to stand up to these people and take back what is ours and let them go squander away their lives elsewhere. If I knew that I wouldn't go to jail, I would stop paying my taxes right now and defund these idiots!

It's not the first time I've seen someone say racist when they meant discriminatory.

there are test subjects in Africa who don't have the luxury of waiting on the postman to deliver their checks twice a month...

Im not the smartest guy and even I know the difference.

 

[fishman525]

Instead of drug testing welfare recipients I say we just eliminate welfare all together.

**** you think you have enough ammo for that? The fallout would be like a scene from the movie hotel rwanda.
