Interesting text message I just received...

"I have to pass a urine test for my job, so, 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 it sees fit. I am required to pass a random urine test with which I have no problem. That with which I do have a problem is the distribution of my taxes to people who do not have to pass a urine test to get a welfare check because I have to pass one to earn it for them. Please understand, I have no problem with helping people get back on their feet. I do, on the other hand, have a problem with helping someone sitting on their ass, doing drugs, while I work. Can you imagine how much money the state would save if people had to pass a urine test to get a public assistance check?

Pass this along if you agree or simply delete if you don't. Hope you all will pass it along, though...."

Now thats the best damn idea I've heard in a while!!! Lets pass that by some of our "candidates" that go on "hope and change"... no, wait, the tax payers would have to fund the drug testing!

I would be angry because I have to pay $0,20 for each text message received.
