Drug test politicians! And Investment bankers who receive bonuses from bailout money.

I am sure those jerks do lines of coke under their desk before getting back to their spreadsheet. I knew plenty of banker friends that would hit the yayo because they were working late on a pitchbook.

I dont buy their argument that this is to save money, considering how expensive drug tests are. This is just more cloaked racist legislation coming from the right.

[Guerrilla22]

Because they are racist and hold on to the general stereotype that everyone receiving public assistance uses illegal narcotics.
