Don't Help People Sit on Their Ass!

This was a letter to the editor of a local newspaper in Oregon. Of course this idea would never work - it makes too much sense.

"I have a question, not only for Douglas County, but for the entire state of Oregon. Like a lot of folks in this state, I have a job. I work, they pay me, I pay my taxes and the government distributes my taxes as they see fit. In order for me to get that paycheck, I am required to pass a random urine test, which I have no problem with.

What I do have a problem with is the distribution of my taxes to people who don't have to pass a urine test. Shouldn't one have to pass a urine test to get a welfare check, because I have to pass one to go earn it for them?
Please understand, I have nothing against helping get back on their feet. I do, on the other hand, have a problem with helping someone sit on their butt

Could you imagine how much money the state would save if people had to pass a urine test to get a public assistance check?"
