Why don't they drug test welfare recipients?

Question

I am a tax payer too. I watch all these lazy *** people with 5 and 6 kids running around using their little EBT cards. Most of these people are quite capable of working but are too damn lazy to even look for a job. They would rather sit on the porch or get their hair and nails done while we bust our *** to pay for it. Our taxes should go to something else instead of the losers who stand at the mailbox on the 1st of the month with their tongues hanging out. It is getting out of control and the government should investigate more than what they do.

Answer 1

It would infringe on their civil liberties. Go figure.Good luck. 2D

Answer 2

I agree to a certain extent. Don't judge them.
You don't really know their situation.

About 6 years ago I was diagnosed with Lupus.
I was in and out of the hospital, and in severe pain
all over my body. I could barely walk.
I had to quit my job of six years, I had to move in with family, and I had to apply for SSI/Disability.
While waiting for the approval of SSI, I was standing in the County line trying to get on some kind of GR and food stamps because I literally had NO money. I withdrew my 401k, savings, etc.
You know how humiliating it was to stand in that line?
When I was feeling a little better, I went to the grocery store and used my EBT card and got so many angry stares from people in line as well as the grocery checker. I felt horrible and judged. These people didn't know my life.
So I say to you, just be grateful that you can work and are doing the right thing with your life.
Don't worry about the abusers because when they get to be retirement age and have hardly no money, no credit, and no skills, they'll wish they worked.

By the way, I'm feeling a lot better, working, nice home, and able to live a normal healthy,
tax paying life. Lol!
:~)

Answer 3

I agree. I remember the owner of the grocery store around my house's wife. they act all rich and stuff and I caught her using her ebt card at a supermarket, she did not know i was behind her, I was in shock, these people have houses in their countries and we are paying for their lifestyles. atrocious.
