Make urine tests for drugs etc. compulsory before State Benefits are given
Members of our armed forces pay their taxes and the government distributes their taxes as it sees fit. In order to earn their pay, they train for war and eventually deploy. They are required to pass a random urine test to detect any drugs, which is acceptable. What is not acceptable is the distribution of their taxes to people who don't have to pass a urine test. Shouldn't one have to pass a urine test to get a benefits cheque because our soldiers, sailors and airmen have to pass one to EARN IT for them?
