All this drug testing talk for the working poor, how about we apply those rules to ANYONE that gets money from the govt (bailouts) needs an immediate drug test to make sure they won't ABUSE our money!

3. And considering the amount of welfare they've taken from
from the US Govt. courtesy of the US Taxpayer, they should be drug tested up the whazoo.

7. I agree, outlaw drug testing!
Or make it FAIR across the board. Nobody gets special treatment.

8. I would rather send the Chairman of the Board and the CEO to jail if the corporation breaks the law.

The corporation is, after all, a puppet of the Chairman of the Board and the CEO.

10. I think it is high time John Q. Corporation
starts paying their taxes too. Plus, they need to be forced to follow the same rules the rest of us follow too. If they are people, they need to be treated like the people of this country are treated.
