here is the question,, do these "unemployed" have to pass a drug test to pick up their "free" check?!?!?!?!!? I bet if they did there would be ALOT less unemployed!!!!!!! Tuck

heres a better idea. how about we do away with drug testing all together. hardly seems fare for somebody to lose their job for something they did in their own personal time. what you do off the clock is your business not your employers or even the government for that matter.

Unless you were still under the influence when reporting to work. Even though the deed was done off the clock, there are jobs where you cannot be under the influence when reporting to work.

Good one today... that the crimes that created our current mess by friendly bankers can be summed up in the repeal of most of the U. S. Usury laws over time. The Bible, Koran, and Jewish doctrine all make it clear that ursury is an evil.

What a sweet deal monster sib-prime lenders have: Get in big trouble? Call in the evil government regulators to plaster over their mess. Nothing like the Fed so long as it plays on the winning team. Who is the Fed? All of us that don't get much out of it whose taxes pay for these poor innocents folly.

Unfettered capitalism is a great thing if you don't have to worry about consequences....thanks to all those evil regulators. It's no puzzlement.

In Warren Buffet's opinion. Personal Computers would never catch on. The Internet was a passing fad. And nobody would be foolish enough to buy the shoddy bug ridden software put out by the Microsoft Corp. And William Gates would be bankrupt as soon as IBM stopped production of the PC Jr.
So I wouldn't take his stand on wind energy as gospel. It would take a wind farm the size of Oklahoma, plus a solar array twice the size of Kansas to even come close to our energy needs. But there sure are a lot of people lined up to buy the hardware regardless. So he's right. There's a few bussels of dollers to be made there.
So far, economically, improving our Coal fired plants looks like the best bet. For the next couple of decades anyway. Atleast until our erstwhile American engenunity (sic) comes up with something better. IMHO
Methane Hydrate anyone?

Now that i think about it, why limit it to unemployment?? how bout food stamps, state aid, ALL the freebies. MANDATORY DRUG TESTING. There isnt a decent job out there that doesnt require testing, why should the "downtrodden of society" be any different? Oh, I forgot, government jobs dont test, that would be an invasion of privacy. (its a fact, my brother has a gov. job) its sad,, I can come home in the evening, drink a bottle a jack daniels, TOTALLY ignore my family,(or slap them around whichever most drunks prefer) and "your fine son, you can come work here". but,,, sit on the couch, smoke a little weed with your wife while watching a little monday night football and,,,,,, FREAK, CRIMINAL,,,,,, YOU ARE FIRED!!!!!!! Anyone know anybody that got high and beat up their wife, or got high and crashed his car and killed a bunch of people. Personally, i think the wrong vice is legalised, and testing is a joke, test everyone , or test NO ONE. Hell , if the gov, could figure a way to tax weed, it would have been legal years ago. Most people just wont bother with the hassle to make their own beer, but damn near anyone can grow a weed. By the way, I once read that in East St. Louis, 75% of ALL food stamps were illegally sold and the cash used to buy booze and drugs, mainly crack. Way to go libs, keep up the handouts!!!!!
