92. Too bad the Founders aren't with us. You could explain to them...
Edited on Fri Jan-28-05 08:09 AM by Q
...how it is that a business has 'rights'. They would wonder what YOU were smoking.

The Bill of Rights protects individuals against illegal searches. A corporation has no rights within the framework of the 'rule of law' to conduct searches...legal or otherwise.

This drug testing scam is simply another way the corporations have come up with to discriminate and deny insurance, employment, promotion and benefits. Some companies use it to get rid of 'trouble' employees that have something on them or are about to retire.

You call it 'drug abuse'. But what about the cost of drug USE? One can use drugs without abusing them in the traditional sense of the word. What is the 'cost' of using drugs and who should exact the penalty?

Drug laws in America allow racists and bigots to control the work force and discriminate against those simply trying to make a living.
