Drug Test for Welfare Checks?

Ok, this has nothing to do with Olivia, I just love this picture and it goes well with the topic because some people dont like to talk about this:

In a small town Wallis, in Texas, there is a sign that is upseting people and is motivating others. One of the signs says:"we pass a drug test for our pay checks, what about welfare checks?". And people, I'm up for that.

I say, if you are getting a welfare check on your name or on your child's name, you need to get a drug test done every six months. In my years teaching I've seen parents who do not have money to give to their children for food or to go on a fieldtrip or to cooperate for somethign at school. I've even met parents who are struggling to pay their rent and others that have been evicted from their home because they dont have money to pay for their rent. But when you meet the parent you see that he/she buys the kid or him/herself a brand new pair of Nikes, or a "gold" watch, or a "diamond" earing. I've seen parents with different cellphones, mp3 players...

But I might be wrong.. what do you think?
