Florida GOP Lawmakers Propose To Drug Test Everyone But Themselves

It is a very tough job finding something to do in the Florida legislature these days, what with everyone having a job and home values doing well, and certainly the state isn’t being invaded by hordes of rapidly-multiplying, large-mammal-eating swamp monster snakes, so House Republicans are reviving one of their favorite policy time-killers, randomly drug testing large swaths of citizens without cause at the cost of millions of dollars to the state in exchange for no savings. Who gets to pee in the cup this time? “All state employees” are the lucky winners, except for …oh hang on there’s a caveat… oh right, except for elected lawmakers themselves. Because, says bill sponsor Rep. Jimmie Smith, this would, uh, violate lawmakers’ First Amendment rights. Good thing nobody else has those!

He that is sinless must be the first to pee!

These crusades never last, cuz theyre expensive and catch few druggies. I suspect that pols usually do it to help the testing sites make money in a bad economy.

Gov Brown's wife owns the state's welfare drug testing company so he personally profits. Wonder if they're using the same company...
