Well I heard (have not fact checked) that dump wants to drug test people on welfare. If he pulls that shit off I will be very impressed and put a point in the plus column lol

That's fiscally retarded. The states that did that in the past caught an insignificant amount of recipients using and found that the testing cost were not even close to offset by the people being denied for having drugs in their system.

Small conservative government would never do that.

Large I want to be involved in your life gubment does that type shit.

Maybe one day we will learn to treat the mentally ill and drug addicts vs criminalize and jail them. A country is only as good as it treats it's citizens that are the worst off.

Just put a time limit on the length of benefits and decrease the amount of pure shit you can use the welfare funds on. Don't create more gubment and get involved in peoples personal lives more. Thats anti conservative IMO.

I am 50/50 on welfare testing. I know some people who abuse the hell out of the system and I know people who worked hard and are now embarrassed they are having to accept help. I still argue that social aide should be done on the state/local level. The Federal government should have nothing to do with it.

If the citizens of state vote to spend their money doing drug testing; they more power to them/State. That is a state's right to do how they see fit under the 10th Amendment.

That's Mr Asshole to you
I read an article about a few states starting to require people on unemployment or food stamp benefits contribute with community service or attend job training classes. I cant remember what the requirements were but it dropped the amount the state was spending on benefits.

I thinking more like cute little gps ankle bracelets for the non disabled on welfare, nice morning reminders for wake up calls to find a job and track their movements from bar to bar or those do cash only jobs and remain on the system

Every single one of us know there is abuse of the system. The system condones it. I know a guy whose wife is charged with getting more people on the dole since the city gets an spiff for each and every dollar - or so I am told - as an administrative fee.

And add fingerprinting and DNA samples, to run a match through the crime lab, before issuing funds...

Better yet, start the CCC back up like it was in the 40's get them in there and fix up our parks!

I like this. We have billions of deferred maintenance on our parks and if we continue to neglect them as we have they will only cost more to fix as more time goes by.

Trumps interior pick wants to insure this maintenance is on the budget.

Trump’s Interior pick promises local cooperation, park maintenance

My only fear with Trump is more land grabs like the last DB. Dude is a real-estate tycoon after-all.
