Do you think that it would be a good idea to make people who claim social benefits* do a urine sample? If illegal drugs are found then they would have their social benefits revoked for improper use.

The idea for this thread came from a soldier who the other day said that he is having his money taxed and putting his life on the line for people on welfare. He said that he would prefer his money to go to genuine cases who really need it, and not support the small percentage who spend their welfare money on drugs.

Basically he said he would not like his taxes to go to those who would waste it and support the drug trade.

What do you think?
