It should be mandatory that anyone collecting any type of Government Assistance from tax payer dollars should be tested for Illegal drugs so that tax dollars aren’t being wasted on drugs

I disagree. There are many changes that need to be made to the welfare program, but adding this would be problematic. First, I think it is an unlawful search. Second, you have to reapply every 6 months unless you get SSI. This means even disabled that made too much while they did work to get SSI so they only get straight disability would have to drug test, file exemption for the many RX drugs that will pop you and wait for government offices to process (correctly which is a stretch) all that extra paperwork. This would be a costly disaster. We need to fix the system to reasonable working order before we add to it.
