RECIPIENTS SHOULD PASS TEST

When someone applies for government support, where do they think these funds are coming from? I believe they are tax dollars from every working person in the country.  So why shouldn't welfare recipients have to pass a drug test to receive this free money? Many employed people in the country have to pass a drug test to gain employment.  If they are injured on the job, companies often require a drug test before they can return to work.

Where are the rights of the taxpayers being upheld? If recipients need to receive welfare, they should not be spending money on the purchase of drugs, period.  Can someone, except a welfare recipient, tell me where their rights are being violated? The trouble with our welfare system is we give all of this money out and do not hold anybody accountable for it.

Where does it state in our Constitution that they are to receive all of this money without any oversight or consequences for their actions? If you work for any company, and are caught with drugs, you will get fired.  Why are the welfare recipients complaining? All of their money is free from all workers in the country.
