Urine tests for welfare recipients

[Aliantha]

An employer has the right to put whatever conditions he wants on the people he employs. If he says they have to wear pink shirts with yellow polkadots once a week, or run around the block twice a day that's up to him. If you accept a job with conditions, it's up to you do deal with it or get sacked.

Making people take urine tests to get their welfare check will eventually happen whether you like it or not, and so it should. Particularly those on unemployment with no good reason to not be looking for a job. They shouldn't be getting high. They should be spending every moment of the work hour day working towards getting a job. If they choose not to do so, they can go mooch off someone else who loves them more. That's my opinion.

No. No.

No...What are you talking about? Whatever conditions implies...whatever conditions.

I'm probably not making any sense..but that's beside the point.
An employer does not have the right to put workers under any conditions he/she wants.

I'm talking about the sort of conditions that come with any job. For example, if you want to work in a strip club, one of the conditions is that you have to be happy to get your gear off. All jobs have different requirements. I don't see the issue really.

Not making sense is not beside the point because there's no point talking if you're the only one that understands you.
